URGENT: "disable partial alpha" [SOLVED]

Hi There,

This option "disable partial alpha" is missing on Octane imager, so when we use render layer the alphas are unpremultiplied.
really a big problem because we can use the maya plug to render older projects with Octane render layers.

Best,
JO

Actually the disable partial alpha is in the plugin but with a wrong label :shock:

As you have this second wrongly labeled neutral response option enabled, you have in fact the disable partial alpha enabled,
and this is why the image seems to have alpha "unpremutliplied" even if the premultiply alpha option is enabled...

The disable partial alpha option have been introduced in Octane3 core to help for this issue : viewtopic.php?p=269484#p269251
(so the option is not needed most of the time)


Thanks Jo, to have highlighted this mistake in the plugin and the confusion coming with it...
