Variation in shader per instance.

[Jason.]

Hello,

I recently jumped into Octane/Blender and I'm mostly loving it so far. One thing I can't figure out is how to add variation in a shader per instance.

For example, I have a bunch of trees scattered.

I've found the Random Color Tex node will give a random value for each one, which is great.

I would expect to be able to plug that into a Color Correct Tex to vary a texture, but it has no effect at all. Perhaps because the colors/datatypes don't match.

Hopefully this is possible and I'm just missing something.

Thanks.

I guess Hue in Color correct node doesn't accept values from Random color tex.

I would mix Random color tex with texture using multiply node or add node.
You can get different colors using gradient node with Random color tex input.
