Can someone confirm that DECALS are not working AT ALL in this version? No matter what i do, the decal never renders.
I see the decal 'wireframe' if i enable the button the in IPR, but NO textures AT ALL no matter what i do.

So for decals to work you need a few things:
1. The decal object node (should give you a result in stock configuration)
2. The decal texture wired into the RECEIVING material. Needs to be directly wired into the target material node (for ex standard material) and can't have other texture nodes in between.
Happy Rendering!

Btw did you know Octane has a discord? https://discord.gg/F4WENTG
It's a great place to get very fast feedback or support from me and other Octane Houdini users.
I'd highly recommend it!

This doesn't seem to be houdini plugin specific.cjadams wrote: Fri Feb 13, 2026 5:55 pm Is there any chance ever to get an up to date MACOSX render node by chance? My mac is jealous of my PC with its 4090.. but could use all the help i can get from the Mac Studio machine.
This would probably be better addressed under general support!
