And what about hair and fur from v2 ?
I would buy this in a heartbeat. The reason we quit using E-on Ozone 6 it is too slow but created great results.Rikk The Gaijin wrote:I know this is a different technology, but have you guys considered something like this?

To me it looks pretty great, and it runs in real-time on a PS4...
I totally agree.coilbook wrote:I would buy this in a heartbeat. The reason we quit using E-on Ozone 6 it is too slow but created great results.
I hope octane will come up with something like this where atmospherics do not take too much time to render. Like in Unreal Engine 4 they run in real time of one card. I don't even care if they are not 100% accurate or cast shadows as long as it is fast.
I am just hoping all the features we will have like fog, haze will not impact render time like 3ds max default fog does not.
I think atmospherics and daylight is a must for all modern renderers like GI, SSS, etc
I would expect it to be release around the end of the year, but who knows. They are already late with the private Beta, it was supposed to start in summer, but it's almost September and they haven't implemented all the new features promised in the Press Release yet, so it might take a while.ChrisCore wrote:Does anyone know when octane 3.0 will be released?

I need to buy a new mac workstation and only will buy a new macpro, if the AMD gpus will be supported, soon.
Otherwise I´ll go for a hackintosh, probably.
We are targeting a 3.0 release this year if we don't run into any surprises. The web demo on the home page is 2 versions behind already.Rikk The Gaijin wrote:I would expect it to be release around the end of the year, but who knows.

This is just my wild guess, I have no clue what the development status is, so bear with me.
The Brigade team is heads down working on ORBX scene loading and OSL compiler (which is also being adapted for Octane 3). At that point we expect to be able to have pretty good scene parity in both engines. We then plan to launch Brigade as wider service, and as an add to the on to ORC. It will support real time dynamic ORBX scene playback with path tracing, and run potentially on N-number of GPUs, just like Octane rendering on ORC does for offline use cases.Rikk The Gaijin wrote:Any words on Brigade? I was hoping to hear some news at SIGGRAPH, but there was nothing.
So it sounds like Brigade has completely abandoned the original idea of being a Game Engine, and it has shifted of being a cloud-powered real-time viewer. That's quite sad.Goldorak wrote: The Brigade team is heads down working on ORBX scene loading and OSL compiler (which is also being adapted for Octane 3).

UE4 baking will be another option for real time playback in Octane 3, as will light fields (both need a pre-computation step, which Brigade does not). Mixing all of these will be possible too in future builds of the ORBX media player.
