Hi,

Recently I've been working on a script for convert materials to Octane, because our materials are complex and involve vertex map.

But I have some problems now, it should be a bug, the "Name" property of "Color vertex attribute" node seems to conflict with the name property of the max native node.

Hi suitlm,
Thank you for reporting this.

That's right, both Color_vertex_attribute(Color vertex attribute) and Greyscale_vertex_attribute(Greyscale vertex attribute)
have a property 'name' that conflict with the texture name!
I couldn't find any work around; we can't seem to access parameters by index (0) or ID (12780 in this case) with maxscript..
I will rename those as 'attributeName' in the next releases..
Sorry about this.
Thanks,
