Hi guys. Following aoktar's steps does indeed result in both outputs, but can you tell me why when I export them to a layered .exr(octane) the passes get washed out? It seems like they don't get tone mapped or something. If I export to separate files (.png, for example) it works, but .exr doesn't even if not layered. I'm using .exr because I'm also exporting cryptomatte masks.

So if I can't solve this I would still need to render things twice.
Is it solvable?

I can provide more info if needed.
Thanks

exrs wont have a gamma curve baked in like most other formats. In after effects, right click the footage in the bin, interpret footage and flick the "interpret as linear light" on. This should bring the image back down to where youre expecting.

Yeah AE seems to do this by default. And to be honest I would have never guessed something was wrong if I were using AE from the start. Where I'm struggling is with PS, I'm compositing things there for print purposes. I'll try to find something similar to check/uncheck there. If you know something I'll appreciate ya. Thanks.

Edit: Just adding an exposure with game set to 0,416 seems to mostly solve it. (I'm guessing I needed to interpret 2.4 gamma as 1 or something alike). TY for pointing me there.

I wouldnt be using exr in photoshop personally, it has very poor support for the format, just choose something else which does the job.

Is there any other file format that supports cryptomatte though?
