Thanks so much. Looking forward to it! There has been a need for this type of content for quite a while now. Will there be any coverage of Octane in the Solaris context?

Thanks for the post. It is not possible currently in Octane Solaris.
We have created an internal ticket to investigate implementing this feature like we have in SOP.

cheers

That sounds great, hopefully it won't be too difficult of an implementation. Thanks for looking into this!

Any ideas how to save an Octane Material created in Houdini to the Local/Live DB? Saw a post from 5 years ago stating that it was possible to ALT+Left Click over the IPR window, which would open up the native Octane node editor and the material could be saved from there. This doesn't appear to ...

Just checking back. Would really love to see Open Image Denoising implemented for all denoised AOVs in Houdini/Solaris as soon as possible, since it is much faster than Octane AI denoising and yields better results. Hoping so much. Thanks OTOY for all your hard work!

Thanks for taking the time to respond!
I think it sounds like what we have planned will cover what you're hoping for!
Btw are you on the octane discord? I would highly recommend you to join!


What is the Octane Discord? I would like to join as well!

I'm just wondering when we'll see a full implementation of Open Image Denoising in Octane Houdini/Solaris. Right now we can only output the denoised beauty AOV pass, any other denoised passes (diffuse direct, etc.) come out blank. Would love to have this feature soon, as it yields better results ...

That's the issue, it wasn't happening on a regular basis. Sometimes the lights were working just fine and other times I would alter just a simple parameter, causing a light to not work at all. I wonder if it has something to do with having a light mixer wired into the chain elsewhere?

When working in the regular Object Context, we have the option of enabling tessellation in the Octane options for Geometry containers. This is particularly useful if we're using a hard-surface model with N-gons, so it displays and renders correctly. In the Solaris Stage context however, I can't find ...

In addition to not being able to use the look at options for lights while in the Octane Render view in Solaris, I came across this bug of a light suddenly not working after just tweaking the exposure value. After this happens, neither intensity or exposure values are registered and the light remains ...
