Hello Everyone,

Hi Anestis and welcome :)
The LiveDB section is an archive of materials shared by other users. You can download any materials and use it in your scene. It's a good way to understand how the Octane node system works. There is also a preset shader for Quixel and Substance painter. Note that this section is not moderated, and some old materials can give errors with the latest version of OctaneRender.
Please have a look at the video tutorial section for a first overview of DAZ plugin:

Happy rendering,
ciao beppe
