Can you re-render with pathtrace and post the time? doing that would be alot more useful for a comparison
OK ItsAllGood9, I will do this later tonight and try to optimize the scene, and post numbers at different samplesitsallgoode9 wrote:Can you re-render with pathtrace and post the time? doing that would be alot more useful for a comparison

cool thanks man!. i'm curious to see how it stacks up with vray time-wise. Even though vray will still be faster, i'm assuming PMC is was slowing down octane alot.

LOL
I love these tests...
Two scenes have different materials and lighting settings. The Vray scene (on the right) has more contrast but the the light that enters through the apertures is more blueish.
Unfortunately I don't like how Octane handles film camera response or tonemapping. We can compensate with white balance but I'm not happy with the results.
For example I prefer how colors are handled in Corona or Thea. Using old style method Corona or Thea colors are naturally saturated, we get good contrast.
With Octane tonemaps set to linear we have washed images that can be compensate with gamma but we loose contrast.
We can recognize all Octane renders. They are greenish and we have to work al lot with PS...
Also in Octane we can't render material masks as alpha, we have only masks to select with the magic wand....this is not a professional photo retouching pipeline.

The fact the the render are "greenish" is because you need to change the camera response to Linear. The greenish look comes from the Agfacolor HDC 100 plusCD default preset.
