Hi Juanjo! I know this is probably the most asked question on the planet for you but does this OSL texture middle ground workflow allow us to get a live link between houdini's point attrs and Octane now or does that need the more in depth implementation of OSL materials? Not looking for release times I know this will be a doozy in terms of plugin upgrade, just curious!

Hi,

Let's see how OSL works finally in the 3.08 build, but in any case also Octane is going to need to support user attributes in the geometry to make it possible. At least now the plugin has workarounds to render instances, hairs and particles using the Cd attribute with the options available in the Octane spare parameters.

Thanks,
-Juanjo

Looking forward to have full support for point attributes.
