Nice release, works smooth and without problems.
But i am to stupid to understand the material-system. How can i generate a metal like silver?
The reflection is always to weak for me.

What about a little contest to generate c4d/octane materials and put them all together
in a seperate thread?

if i turning off dispersion (chop), it doesnt work.
only when i set the slider to zero......
i think its a bug.

First of all, thank you for your great work.

Even though I'm on mac, I could not restrain myself to buy the Windows version.
I use it via bootcamp.

When opening a project, I had these error messages. An idea?

Hello,

I may have solved my problem with textures. The file was on another disk. By copying the system disk, there was no error message.
Is that the problem was the use of a second disk, or because I use windows via bootcamp and the second drive was formatted for mac?

You probably have to use a higher Index (IOR) to generate more reflective materials.
In the standard it´s set to 1.3 Try to set it to 5-8

If you don´t want to use the Index just set it to 0 (but as I understand it this setting is not physical accurate)

Hope that helps!

Cheers,

Hi everbody,

Soon we will publish a update for fixes(you reported) and improvements. Also for r12.0 (11.5 not yet). Also Mac version, we will wait a little bit.
You will find in Cinema4D forums.

Best Regards

is the voxelation process faster in the integrated plugin or its the same speed as the exporter?

what means: "Also Mac version, we will wait a little bit."

...i hope, the macversion is on the way...

Hi,
I have another problem (which has already been reported). C4D some materials do not appear correctly in the viewer Octane.
In addition, some textures do not seem recognized materials in Octane.

Hi ashurao, can you send me material details on C4D forum?
