Please can you post an example video?
Are the tutorial on a general basis that can be used for standalone version or other software plugin?

hey guys ,
First i want to thank you guys for supporting me
I have to say sorry about No-voice recording cuz i am such a noooob,and it's hard for me to say English during recording,although I try so hard to say or using any text-voice recording,it won't work
So,I provide Subtitle to all videos so that u can understand
Many users are happy about speed up their own renderings after watching the tutorials(some users can now rendering their own scene from 5hr drops to 2hr or some from 3hr to 1hr) I am so glad that I can help you guys Thank you for giving me this opportunity again !!!!
Anyway , here is a youtube link of VOL1 preview,please see in HD mode(I am new to youtube,I just upload in 1080P,but somehow youtube can only watch in 720P,still don't know why,can some1 please tell me how to watch in 1080P ???Thank you so much!!)Unfortunately I can't provide any VOL2's preview cuz I have to go home now But VOL2 has a different lighting option comparing to Vol-1,and it's much faster than VOL1 even it's a little bit heavier Don't miss it!!

Oops sorry again, i don't know how to add a video link to this page,u have to open it manually


Also, we are preparing the next season tutorials which will going to show you how to deal with heavy interior scene and speed up render work flow(Yes it's all about time )
Someone may said that Octane can't handle very large scene or will cost u too much render time(say 10hour or even more )So, I will going to say how about heavy scene this time
Please take a look at this screen shots(which still W.I.P.ing) for some random test rendering!This scene contains over 10 millions polys,render time is about 20-35min per renderings on gtx680m+gtx690 (actually I save the screen on every 10mins, almost become clean and ready to save a final images after 15min rendering, that's pretty awesome!!! Well Done Octane Render )

Hope you guys like this I will see you in the next seasons

hey guys,new update for my little works here
http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=34610

hi all~ long time no see ^^
here I update a little test for exterior rendering! render time is about 15min for a single gtx680M!
this exterior scene eat me about 3GB video memory(actually it's about 2.2GB , 800MB for windows display)! my gtx690 is dead for this

Still need a lots of work to improve the detail , adding ivy , multiscatter grass , street lamps , etc...

but here is the draft preview , original render res is 3000pix(15min on a single gtx680m) downscale to 1500pix(a little bit photoshop , just add a day light background image)


OH By The Way, I think I may found a bug! for matte material, for example if u set all the building to a diffuse material and check on "matte" option, the building shows totally black(which is correct!) but!! the samp/pix drops down from 4.0MS to only about 0.9-1.2MS (which don't make any sense cuz I actually need to separate the building and the landscape,which called render layers but that's super slow )So I have to render the whole scene into a single image But it's stupid! when client wants to change material for the building, I have to re-render the whole scene which contains the landscape! even if I set matte option to those buildings and render the landscape only, it's super slow~~ Can some know about this problem???

Any chance for an EXTERIOR TUTORIAL?
