Thanks neonZorglub, OSL textures seem to be working well now with the Activate All Textmaps preference turned on - I use the hide unused node slots in the Slate preferences and works well.

The default composite material support is a nice bonus it's much easier to use than Octanes

Thanks neonZorglub, I did look in preferences for a setting but completely overlooked that one, I will turn it on.

I am not sure if you spotted but when I turn this on to get all input pins. The moon tint value no longer works properly? It seemed locked to a red colour unless I switched it back to ...

Hello neonZorglub
In 3dsmax when using an OSL texture, the OSL texture map does not show all possible input pins?

It looks like it only shows input pins for color and texture inputs... There are no input pins for floats, vectors etc

This also means that I cannot input a Sun Direction map into a ...

Thanks neonZorglub glad you could emulate the issues. Hopefully, there is a simple fix!

In my original use case I was attaching to the environment slot (hence no material) and generally speaking I do not use the compact editor anymore

Hello neonZorglub,
Please see attached the OSL issues i was describing in the 2026 Alpha thread. Attaching here as I rolled back to this version and it still has same issue.

Basically there is some weird caching going on with OSL textures in the Slate editor, this is more apparent the more OSL ...

Clicking between different OSL textures in the Slate editor would result in a visual merging of parameters, caching previous OSL texture params and displaying them in the next one ...

Last time I used forest ivy I am pretty sure I had to output full mesh, I dont think quick mesh is supported yet by Octane. Does selecting mesh work?

Hello Paride,
Just use any texture which has a displacement map, when displacement is used it breaks the other maps, albedo, roughness etc, (looks like it tiles and stretches them) remove the displacement map or set to compatibility mode and it works as expected.

The issue is tied to the faces the ...

Thanks neonZorglub, please can you speak to your coworkers because new displacement breaks all the other maps.... I already reported this 2 months ago here https://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=84831 with a video and someone else has as well.

But obviously they never fixed it and it is ...

5. This is my conclusion as well, the issue can be masked by low enough step volume % however, counter intuitavely to this, I found that in some sitations higher also worked depending on the fog look you are going for.

Hopefully a developer can confirm if this is just a core limition relating to ...
