I've had a look around in C4D Plugin 2020.1.5 and well as SA 2020.1.5 but cannot find it.
Here's screengrab from the presentation

I've been watching GTC 2020 presentation and noticed the new Spread Function OSL input for emission distribution. This looks very handy.

Here's a screengrab from the 2020.1 Features list on the Otoy website.
It looks like it should just be OSL code that could be copied into the OSL texture.

Hi,
here is an example scene of the Spread SpotLight OSL script in c4doctane:
P.S. it works also in OctaneX PR3
Happy GPU Rendering,
ciao Beppe

Thanks so much for providing the OSL script 
Jules said some of these common tools being implemented via OSL might be exposed/baked into standard nodes accessible via the Standalone UI and therefore be exposed at a core level via the DCC plugins.
It seems a little strange that I had to ask for the OSL code so that I could access a feature advertised in 2020.1
I did look on liveDB for the OSL code for this feature but could not find it. Is this script buried somewhere in the forums?

The spread function is in fact baked into Octane X already, and we are working to get this into 2020.2+ built in nodes too!

Thanks for confirming Jules. Very much looking forward to the roadmap a head. It took me a long time to get round to watching the April presentation but I was seriously impressed with what I saw. It's an exciting time to be an Otoy customer!Goldorak wrote:The spread function is in fact baked into Octane X already, and we are working to get this into 2020.2+ built in nodes too!
Hi,
you can get the Spot Spread OSL script from the following .orbx file:

Happy GPU rendering,

This was added in OctaneRender 2020.2. It's called the "Spotlight Distribution" node.feels wrote:Will this ever be implemented into the C4D build without a need for the OSL script?Goldorak wrote:The spread function is in fact baked into Octane X already, and we are working to get this into 2020.2+ built in nodes too!

I just searched the C4D docs and it appears to be in the plugin too:
