BUG: Displacement causing shading normals on other materials to be faceted?

I'm running into an issue where having displacement on a material on 1 mesh, causes materials on other meshes to become faceted

1. Load the orbx and select the render target to render

NOTE: The 2 teapots look faceted

2. Disconnect the "displace%Default" material/nodegraph from the abc node

RESULT: Now the smoothing on the teapots is correct (smooth)

Please let me know from which plugin did you export this scene?

I use the modo plugin

New edges rounding has shading errors compared to eg. Cycles implementation.
This faceted look happens on all types of meshes.

hello,
something is going wrong with the slave-installer ( win 10)
i got this errormessage:

slave-licence-Error.jpg

i have one all-acess licence, so one slave is also included

thanks in advance

edit@ i disabled the old active v4 licence on the slave-workstation, now it works.

edit2@ it works exactly one time, restart the slaveworkstation and now the errormessage appears again:

slave-licence-Error.jpg

the latest RC3 worked also with the slave-workstation without problems. this "stable"-version not.

Hi JC,

Interesting did you set on accurate not the fast? maybe paste the orbx for the dev to see

Cheers,

These edge rounding errors happen on virtually every model, even very simplistic ones. I has to work on curved surfaces, not just cubes.

MODO left, Octane right (thx)

[Lewis]

Greg you probably mean the other way around, modo LEFT side, octane RIGHT side?

BTW i found that Octane 2019.1.1 is slower than octane v4.05 so that should be another thing which DEVs should fix/optimize.

check for test scene here:

Hi JO, it's set to accurate. Happens on all curved meshes.

I made a copy of Greg's rounded edge example in case the devs need an orbx
