Is it possible to convert houdini mantra/fbx materials to octane materials like in other programs? And if not are there plans to intergrate such a feature soon?

Probably the best tool to convert materials inside Houdini is the ODTools. You should take a look at it.

For example: "Material Converter: Converts principled shaders (i.e.. from fbx imports) to Octane/Redshift/3Delight/Renderman or VRay materials"

Hope it helps,

Talk about timing. I was having this exact problem, one hour in I get an email (I follow Houdini/Octane related topics in this forum).
Bought ODTools, do this: https://vimeo.com/504471849 and converted like 40 materials to Octane in a second.

Thanks!
