It's just renamed. Placed at blue group at the top in node editor
Thank you, I think it is now "Grayscale color."

You're quite right.
Some other nodes changed their names too. rgb spectrum, octane gradient....

Yes, from a long time there were some nodes mistakenly named, and differently from Standalone or other plugins.

Float texture is a good example, it is named Grayscale texture in Standalone or other plugins, to be not confused with Float value node.

The same is for Octane Gradient, that means nothing, it must be called Gradient Map like in Standalone, because you can apply a gradient on an input texture, similar to C4D Colorizer node, not to C4D Gradient, we have the Gradient generator node for that.

Happy GPU rendering!

ciao,

I think there are some issues with the new version of Shader Color, as some unknown changes occur after converting the color space/modifying the view transform (project).
