Decals are decal texture ?
It seems that it will be a real labyrinth with lots of decals on the same surface, what about when we want a glossy aspect on a diffuse material ?

The decal currently works by overriding a specific channel of a material rather than the material itself. This feature is primarily designed for plug-ins to implement features such as Unreal's decal system. Most users can achieve their desired results by using layered materials instead. We will improve this feature in future.

Is there any ETA on when a C4D version of Octane 2025 will be available?

Hi team,

I have an internal benchmarking scene for our computers and I cannot believe my eyes.
M4 Max with Octane 2024.1: 39 sec.
M4 Max with Octane 2025.1 Beta: 24 sec.

How did you do that?! :shock: :)
Incredible work!

But we have to do this on the raw data before it gets linearized by the engine. Set it to "non-color data", add a "Channel inverter" node and set it to invert the green channel, add a "Color space conversion" node and set it to "sRGB to linear sRGB". Then plug this in the Chaos texture and it should work.
Interesting info, thanks!

Probably coming this or next month. I assume they will release 2025 and 2026 plugins so they have some work to be done.
