Would be cool to have some "Affect Displacement" checkbox on these nodes, so that we could manually force it to be processed pre-displacement.

Export problem to Standalone while using Field Texture. Attached scene.

Offset parameter doesn't work in C4D plugin.

Shift key while dragging Fallow and Offset doesn't work.

Fallow parameter in Field texture works fine when shape object is regular SDF primitive :
But it clamp values over 1 if c4D object is used with Mesh to SDF enabled :
ORBX included.

Displacement works fine with Field Texture - see post above.

In node editor when trying to add OSL texture from Create menu > OSL none of the textures work.

They are working fine here. You might want to re-install your plugin...

I have encountered a serious problem where the image cannot be stored after rendering is completed, and closing the picture viewer will result in c4d not responding.
I tested with many different projects, and they all trigger bugs, especially when a project renders output for the second time (output overwrites the previous image), it will appear 100%

Nope, I've installed the latest version again and it is the same. Is there some setting for this?

Here is the video recording showing the issue, (scripts from left menu add fine):

It's happening on some setups when render AOVs are used. Work around is to disable the "show passes" parameter

Octane C4D plugin has missing features for SDF objects in Mesh to SDF option from Octane Object Tag. Missing features are :

1. border padding outside
2. in the import/conversion settings at the top called "Border thickness (voxels)"
3. border thickness in/out parameters

we don't have such features : viewtopic.php?f=24&t=81415&start=30#p425019
Also there is export to ORBX issue while using Mesh to SDF

Hi there,

what was again the problem, if octane never finishes a rendering?

Thought there was a solution for that problem, but I don't remember.


Render is ready, but status still saying "Render progress..." and it never stops/saves.
"Show Passes" already disabled!

regards
Mike
