- sometimes when something bugs out on the system, you notice it only after you close and open, probably something stuck in the memory... anyway take into consideration please
a workaround is to load another texture name and reload the good one, it's working without closing the octane preview ( but right, that's annoying too but save build time on heavy scenes !!)

I know that works as well, the point is not to click three times to reload something at least reduce it it to one - 3dmax usually loads this automagically when using it's own shader

- another bug, I encountered - if that even helps anymore, cause we might be introduced to entirely new bugs :)

- the color correction node - when you copy/paste it, or ctr-shift-alt drag inside the slate material editor - it tends to override something in this situation - when you drag copy it it returns it into texture node

- when both of those nodes are attached to it, and you change the texture to a colour - it tends to turn the color settings into a texture -

- keep it in mind anyway or list is a bug - because I kept on getting strange results because I had 15 nodes for a material, and couldnt figure out what it was - this can crop up as a problem -

- mind you, if you copy it inside a material editor, and than drag it back it's ok, only when you ctr+shit+alt drag drop it inside node editor, which I do a lot, because I can

The only way to do Motion Blur in 3dsmax is using Multi-Pass Effect in standard camera. Set it to Motion Blur. Dither to zero. And don't forget to reduce samples per pixel amount by Total passes amount

Karba

Please also think about implementing the background image feature in the viewport. It would be really helpful for lining up composites.

hey karba
say I want to make a fast transition with motion blur from one camera view to another with a different camera shift. is this possible? I mean is there a way to animate the camera setup parameters in render dialog (since camera correction modifier is not working)?
tnx
