I wrote you about C4D Paint last week, and not sure if your fix to "detect paint of xbitmap" is what did the trick, but I can paint now with that plugin and refresh the octane window with a keyboard shortcut and see nearly instant feedback. It's crazy being able to paint onto objects in a lit scene and see the results in (practically) realtime! Thanks!!!

I have more plans about paint and more. We're looking for better connection and feedback for this tool: http://www.gamelogicdesign.com/Products ... nt%20Brush

I tried to instal this last version and C4D R17 doesn't fint octane plugin at startup.
No problem with previous version.

Do you know why ?
Thanks

Yes that's the tool I'm referring to. I have been talking back and forth with Kent the developer and what the two of you have already made possible is amazing. I can't wait to see what is possible going forward!

I've been trying combine textures in the Mix material, but displacement doesn't show up, even if I just add a single bitmap. I'm using the Mix material 'Use displacement' setting, checked on, with the Octane displacement shader, but no result.

Displacement works on the separate materials as normal.

That looks awesome fun!

Pitty it's R17 or newer only....

Ahmet, does it take a lot of extra work supporting the older versions? (Trying to understand why the plugin mentioned only supports R17 or newer).

it's a renderer limitation. You can only use images in displacement not any other octane textures.

older than R13 on Windows and older of R15 on osx is nearly impossible for me. Adding TFD and etc connections caused lot of new problems on builds. Also there's some unsupported features and changes on every C4D SDK. At these points people have to make some decisions between features or compatibility.
Also I'll start an octane connection library as a bridge for 3rd party plugins. My hope to give some access and allow write their support for our octane plugin

Okay. I just tried it again and now I'm getting displacement. Although it would be great its w could layer displacement textures together in the same way we're mixing textures.
