Yes, that works great now. I would still like a "uniform" version of the RandomColor Texture (a "UniformColor Texture"), but it's not urgent. Thanks again for your help!!!

Sorry, this is something that should be supported by Octane, I can't add this feature myself in the plugin.

You can see that the diffuse channel and the opacity channel are receiving different images and that shouldn't happen. That is particularly surprising.
weird, are you sure that the texture nodes are linked to the same gradient node inputs?

I finally realized I wasn't applying the "decals" correctly. All I was doing was cutting a hole in the sides of the robots which is why sometimes the numbers looked funny. To apply decals correctly one has to use Material Mixer, plug the regular robot surface into the first Material input, a texture image with the number (in this case, black on white) and set to Color Image plugged into the second material, and a texture image with the same picture and set to float (it doesn't necessarily matter) plugged into the Amount input.

I've just found that on this custom build "Arbitrary" render ranges doesn't work. Not sure if that was the case before updating the Gradient2 node.

Here render arbitrary frames seems to work. What string are you using for the arbitrary frames?

Arggg ... you have a really long animation ;)

Sorry, my frames range code only supports now up to 10000 frames, but I can add more if you need it ;)

How long? ... 50.000 frames are enough?
