Hi

Learning Octane and coming from Vray, I tend to use the Dome light quite a lot

You can use it as a fill light and of course add an HDRI to it and it has a fair few options (Vray C4D)

Is there an equivalent in Octane? or is it just a case of using an texture or HDRI environment?

Cheers

Hi,
I’m not a Vray user, but you need to use the Octane Environment node to illuminate with a color or with an HDRI:
