Re: OctaneRender for Carrara 3.05.01.31[Test]

I was thinking on a per object basis - but if there was also a global control to say "Increase/decrease the power of all emitters", that could be a useful option as well!

I need to set these up with Carrara's shaders but would ideally like them to render in Octane Render too without having to adjust them all each time I render - there are a lot! The default conversion from having a texture in Carrara's glow channel into Octane's Emission channel seems to give a very low value for the emission, of 0.03, which is almost equivalent to having no emission at all.
Would it be possible to have a look at this and change the default translation from Carara shader's glow to Octane Material's Emission to something that looks broadly equivalent? Also if there is a multiplier on the Carrara side, so Multiplying a texture map by say 250%, could you use this to adjust the strength of the Emission automatically in Octane?
I hope this will be an easy task and something that you can build into the next major update. No worries if not, I can do things manually, but having a good automatic translation would be a real time saver (and hopefully useful for other Octane for Carrara users as well!).
