GSplat render vs viewport color difference

[jytheredhood]

Hi, this is my first time using Octane Solaris. I have noticed that Gaussian splats appear more washed rendered in Octane compared to the viewport. Am I missing something here?

Hi John,

Thank you so much for the post.

Yes, this happens only happens on some GS files.
We are aware of this issue and requested our developer to prioritize.
