Hi, I would like to know if there is a solution to transform octane textures to C4D or export octane textures to an FBX ?

Hi, there isn’t any aside from ORBX.

USD is getting that concept closer to reality but isn’t widely and fully supported as of yet.

Alembic is strongly recommended over FBX.

Hi,
you can change the type of all c4doctane materials to Universal material, then export the scene in .orbx to Standalone, then use the Geometry Export node connected to the Main geometry group:

Define the saving path, and enable the material export, then right click on the node and chose Trigger:

As previously mentioned, nothing aside ORBX allows to save Octane materials/shaders.

Alembic is a 3D file format recommended over FBX or worse, OBJ.
