Thought this could be made with "checks" texture but don't see how to make the shadow lines thin and the (say) clapboard wide...

Thanks Geof. I'm still not sure what you are trying to achieve.

That is clapboard siding on a house. I made that in Revit, in the Appearance Tab, using the Tiles procedural. I was hoping Octane had an analogue to that.

You can use the texturemap you created above in an Image node in the diffuse pin of the Octane siding material.

Thanks, Paul. I just thought there might be a "procedural" way, which gives a quicker ability to modify. But no problem/that works.
