Animate Noise Shader

[NVN]

Hi.
how can i use a animated Noise shader in Octane?
My Noise is in the bumpchannel, speed is 1, nothing happend?
why?

exactely the same problem I posted here:
how does the random color node work?

So what I found out so far is to animate the "seed" inside
the noise shader. Not the "animation"-parameter.
"Animation" does not do anything. Don't know why.

If you find a better solution please share!

regards
Mike

Hi guys,
please post what you did? I can't estimate what are you doing!

"speed" does nothing, try "animation speed". Also try to key some parameter to force updates

[miohn]

crashed 2 times while trying to animate "animation speed"

don't use multi-core for c4d shaders. There is a warning about this

[miohn]

cpu-cores is set to "1" in octane settings.

Since version 2.10 I got lots of stability issues.
Also Node Editor crashes very often here.

Hope, that this will get better again with next versions.

thanks
Mike

Mike, can you see lot of stability reports from other people?
I can check if you could give me concrete things. Otherwise there is nothing to help.

Hey everyone, found a solution I think. I believe the material only updates if one of the values in the noise channel changes or is keyframed.

Keyframing the global scale from %300 to %301 over the timeline I wanted the noise to animate seemed to work. You could probably make the change so small that it would be unnoticeable but still continue to update the texture every frame.

Cheers

Yes it's only way to do this.
