Which feature do you need the most?

[Polygons]

Light caches. Light caches are essential for interior renderings as brute pathtracing returns very noisy results. Vray added this in 3.0 to Vray RT and it's hugely useful.

Better rounded edge shader. Again, Vray's is flawless, i use it on all my mechanical renderings, and with octane i haven't used it once as it's extremely limited in comparison and basically just creates massive artifacting on meshes

PT with giclamp+causticblur+optimised emitters does a good job too

any good lightcaches comparisons and pathtracing out there?

I just came up with one, saw it hovering on the forums a few times I need this now the most:

"render region per object"

I think that`s what`s it called.

**I personally dont really like hotpixal removal as it can also remove details, but that one also works

LUT pass - I had suggested a postprocess or imager pass, but now think that making an LUT exporter is the only way to achieve this. I really like what I can achieve using the Octane imager but there appears to be no way to get these settings to PS or AE when using Linear.

Physical camera please.

Easy choice: the efficient handling of many small light sources without noise

Yup. See my other post on this.

Hi,

ORBX import.

Import Geometry, Texture, Lights ... ORBX for all 3D plugins would be great.

once again, please, make a render boolean node, like in MODO or Lightwave DP kit! It's only a thing, that prevent me to make all animations in Octane. Could you, please, at least, give any forecasts about when it be possible to make?
