Material translation - help

Hello,
i'm new to Octane experience and i'm trying to get the grasp of basics, i need some help in order to understand which is fastest way to convert materials from Lw to Octane.
All my LW materials are nodal and PBSDF-based, so no T channels.
Is there any chance to translate this material (see attachment) into Octane material automatically ?

Or do i really have to add Octane image nodes load each image into them manually ?

thanks in advance,
Paolo

Hmm, nope sorry. These kinds of materials can't be translated automatically to Octane. The "Get T" textures function only work with the old standard material with layered textures. I'm afraid that you are going to need to do it by hand unless someone had designed a script to convert them (Oliver Hotz, perhaps)?

Thanks,
