Does anyone know a technique to render the wireframe of a mesh in LW octane, like this tutorial for C4D ?

You can use the info render buffer to export a wireframe pass. But the problem is octane will triple the geometry so you wont see it as quads.

The best option would be to use native LW to export a wireframe view.

Alternatively you could use a preview straight out of Layout, just set your view to wireframe or whatever you want and make a preview, then save it out. If you're in LW 2019+ you can hit alt+q to hide openGL elements to make your scene look cleaner.

If you use the make preview option i recommend installing QuickTime and using that codec.
