I want to controll color of material ID in Info channel!!

[vivecommunications]

Hi

I want to retouch in A.E with only R,G,B color.

But Octane automatically assign random color by material ID.

Can I control color of material ID in Info channel??

That will be part of the render passes feature coming soon.

cheers,
Thomas

Me, too! This is essential. Pleeaaase......

now I do it, by activating Scanline render, and I do it there

but that method doesn't work if you use depth of field in octane

It photoshop or AE you can use chromakey, luma masks and color select any of the IDs you need. and then do a color balance based on that. Im not sure why selecting an exact color is so critical?

If channel ID colors include red and violet, then precise selection is very hard.

Beside if the scene has Motionblur and Depth of field, it will be much harder.

In a Mat ID pass the other day, Octane had assigned a pink to grass, and a very very similar pink to a type of tree leaves. With the blurred edges it was impossible to get a clean key for the grass, as the tree leaves were also selected. If control could be given so that one matID colour could be changed to a contrasting colour, the subsequent matte would be more usable.

Ok that makes sense

Another trick, as info chanel is fast to render, is to uncheck visibility of unwanted material and making another render imho.
