Does anyone ever tried to create a render boole effect with OSL and Octane?
I have to render some heavy slice effects and render-time boolean might be my only option.
Any ideas?

Looks like some folks have been working on this with OSL in Blender and getting some decent results.

Unfortunately while I was learning OSL basics I've found out that Octane's implementation does not support some basic functionality, like getattribute("geom:name", name).
Or I'm missing something?
If that's the case then OSL in Octane is useless for something like render boole.
I want to be wrong about this.
I know close to zero about OSL, other than to kluge some things together by trial and error, but from what I see in the supported attributes available to getattribute()

I think you are probably correct.
