luminous monitor in octane

[Chriz]

Hi,

I did try my best to figure out, how to get the same result as I would, if i choose the luminance-channel in a "normal" C4D Material. In this case I need a monitor with some content on it. And of course the light from the monitor should interact with the surounding objects.

Thank you for every hint!

Connect a texture emission node to a diffuse node, conect an image node to the emission node and load your screen picture there, play with power.

Hi voon!

Thank You for Your help, but i didn´t get it...

But i tried several versions of what You could have meant, and i have no clue which version i missed

Perhaps You, or someone else can sent me a picture, that shows how such a material is built.

Until than i will try and try and try.....

Best, Chriz
