Hello,

I am a new user from Octane. I try to make a material like this "silver color" on the picture. Can help me someone what settings I should use to make this?

Regards,

Jochen

You have to correct the scale base on your object and adjust here and there some values:

Wow it looks very cool. Thank you very much for the help. Is it possible that I open this material in Cinema 4D with Octane Plugin?

Hi jochen,
just add another color correction node between the clamp node and the diffuse pin and reduce its power as needed.
