1 - Nvlink GTX Support

one thing I could say for sure, NVLINK for GTX cards (anything older than 20xx line) will not come. That's not OTOY's call, but NVIDIA's decision - bother them if You want this.

all good ... I want for my 2080 TI

Hello,
So far to my experience (3ds 2018) 2 issues. Opacity map doesn't affect metallic material & there is no menu on (diffuse, specular, etc...) nodes (like none, value, color, map...).
Thank you for your time.

regard to the material convertion
It seems Autodesk general, physical material etc material is not yet supported,
unfortunately all geometry from revit can only be one of these two type of materials...

and also there is an issue with scanline standard mapping location, both material can be correctly reconginzed by vray
please see the below snapshot the 3dsmax file is as attached :

Hi Jimho,
materials and textures supported are listed in Reder Setup > Tools > material converter.
Load general map texture in Octane RGB image node texture > standard texture slot

Dear Paride
thanks for your respond, but what you had answered is not what I am asking.

AGAIN：
I am asking Can Octane support (to some extent at least) material types like autodesk General or physical material which are the autodesk native material which are the only types available in revit.
at least the right scale and the location.
for architects how to line up is a important thing.
in vray the both material in the scene can be rendered correctly--right size right location in redshift, the standard material can be rendered correctly--right size right location in Octane, the standard material can be rendered in right size but not right location Thanks,
Jim

I have a bug in interactive rendering.
When I run a non-converted scene I end up with a strange rendering. Samples go 0...1...0...1...0 and nothing more.

After using "convert all" it works and renders on.

Hi Jimho,
Those materials are not supported yet, but as I'm in the process of adding more material support, I'll add those to my list..
Thanks for your sample scene ! it will be a good starting point

Thanks a lot.

Hi Paride,
I know I asked this question before but I'll mention again.

Why cannot AO have normal direct light like diffuse and pathtracing has? In the image you can clearly see AO doesn't have good direct light at all. Can this bug be fixed? Pathtracing and Diffuse have color bleed that AO doesn't have but direct light should be the same throughout all engines.

Thank you
