Thank you. Attached a simple file with just one box with one material with some color / reflection / opacity and gloss finish settings as a rhino custom material. As a zip because I coudln't upload 3dm file. This is not converting well for me. If this is working for you, I wonder what could be influencing the behaviour of the conversion on my installation. Thank you for having a look.

Sure. See attached image with explanation in the image.
Hi. I just tested this, and changing the type via the material combo box, and using the Convert All Materials To Octane Materials resulted in the same material conversion, so it is working correctly for me. I notice on your screenshot there are no texturemaps, so there are no maps to convert to the Octane material. If you have a specific material which demonstrates the problem you are having, can you please send it to me and I will take a closer look.

Thanks

Paul

That file converts to a Specular material with a Red Transmission using both the Change Node Type combo box and Convert All Materials To Octane Materials for me. Can you post a screenshot of your plugin Settings panel please?

Thanks

These are the same as my settings.

Can you pls provide screenshots showing the problem happening on the file you provided above? Provide a screenshot for each step in the way.

Thanks
