Like Vray Distance !

[BorderLine]

Good evening Juan,
Do you think we have the possibility to have something like Vray distance with LW / Octane ?
Thanks !

Hi,

Are you talking about this feature? https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/VRA ... istanceTex

Probably these kinds of tools can be done using OSL ...

Thanks,

But, is it not the same case of this?

(using the color node instead of the opacity)

Hi,

it is not the same, no. In the example above, it is using "object dissolve" which is not a shader controlled "effect". As Juanjo said, you could do that using OSL and there also might be a way using a LW procedural (using object distance and a gradiant ramp) backed/rasterized into a bitmap at rendertime.
