Version 4.0-RC6-R2 (Obsolete release candidate) 19.10.2018

[abstrax]

1-What do you see in console output about Octane when C4D loaded?
2-Did you try without any other plugins?
3-What's your nvidia driver and OS?
4-What's your hardware (gpus/cpu/mobo/ram)?

1.
Cinema R20 with no other plug (R20 NOT produces bug with mat prev increasing exposure)

invalid offline data block

2. R19 produces this bug with no other plug
3. win10 64, NV driver 416.34
4. 2x 1080ti nvidia, i7 930, mobo?, 24Gb DDR3 HyperX Fury

Thank you for your reply. It's the same issue as this: viewtopic.php?p=348689#p348689
It affects all material/texture preview rendering if no normal rendering has been started yet.
We are planning to get another build out tomorrow, but still working on some issue in the universal material. Apologies for the hassle.

Ahmet, please, make possible to save passes in LV like saving beauty pass. PLEEESE. With sRGB profiling and tonemapping.

[chrisbrearley]

When using Render Layers the Black Shadow and Reflection passes do not get denoised. This negates the whole denoising process on the beauty pass as we still need to render with the same amount of samples as we did with v3 to get clean shadows and reflections.

Please add denoising to all Render Layer passes.


On another note, having the beauty intersect and cutout the shadow and reflection passes with Render Layers makes it awkward when applying depth blur in post. The mode 'only side effects' keeps the full shadow and reflection passes without anything cutout but then it doesn't render the beauty. Is there anyway to get all of the shadow and reflection like you get with 'only side effects' whilst keeping the beauty?

[chrisbrearley]

Also getting a huge amount of crashes as others have reported. It seems to happen a lot when changing material properties. Changing out-of-core to off also has no effect. I would have HUGE objections if this current version was to be released as stable anytime soon.

One more thing. Regarding the denoiser and animations. It's not very good. Instead of sharp noise you just get soft blurry noise. It looks great on stills but for anything moving we have to render enough samples to render out the noise. It looks no better and I find that post denoisers such as Neat video do a better job.

[tomsvfx]

Hey chrisbrearley, did you tried enabling Static Noise?
For me it helps very much for interior scene rendering.
But samples cant be too low, I use around 300-1000 samles to get it stable.

[lucioing]

Hi, Ahmet!
Just testing your great job, but I've some problems with materials...
An image is better that 1000 words.
Thank you again for your GREAT job!

That's a bug that got introduced with the CUDA error work around of RC6. We are looking to push out an update as soon as possible (either today or tomorrow). Apologies for the hassle.

Ok, thank you for your reply...

Yes, we've used that in the passed but it looks like someone has just overlayed a static piece of noise over the whole footage. It works on some occasions but more often than not it can be very off putting.

+1 I also had similar troubles with blurry noise in animation.

I'll think for an intuitive way of doing this.
