... I can find it at Rhino here. Very missed!

Where is the emission on glossy materials?

its only on diffuse materials
try making a mix material with one diffuse+emission and one glossy

Hi,
it's not a workaround, is more how the octane shaders currently work.
If you don't want to use a mix material, you can use a specular material with an sss medium node with emission active for simulating a glossy emitter

From an artists view it stay a workaround until Octane is easier to use.bepeg4d wrote:Hi,

I used Vray several years and materials are so easy to create only by adding layers - diffuse layer, reflection layer, emissive layer - like the user need it in the order like needed. The current octane materials are difficult to setup, the glossy emitter is a good example.Thank you for your setup, sounds very good.

Hi all,
Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I'm trying to achieve the same thing. I can't work out how to add SSS though a specular material like it says above? Please could somebody help?
I'm basically trying to create an iPad screen which has a bit of reflection - must be a common thing. I don't really want to emit through a sheet of glass if I can help it
Thanks,
Tom

Hi Tom,
since it is roughly an emissive plane, have you tried by mixing a diffuse material with emission and a glossy for reflections?

HI Beppe,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, that's what I'm doing so far. It works ok but I wanted to avoid using a mix material in this case because I have a cloner array of 36 iPads with different screens and I just wanted a neater scene file than having 73 materials for the screens alone! Thanks anyway

Ok, here is the specular emission example:
