Following is a pre-release build compiled with Octane 3.06 TEST 4, will all the new features from the video above. This should be a reasonably stable.
3.6.3.117 pre-release
- Compiled with Octane 3.06 TEST 4 (includes Adaptive Sampling, new Bokeh pins, new Pano Camera DOF pins, new Add/Subtract/Comparison/Triplanar texture nodes, and Normal and Displacement mapping enhancements, new Triplanar projection node)
- Resolved issue with some non-Mesh item geometry meshes loading twice
- Modo Render Region channel modifiers are now evaluated when setting the Octane render region
- The following Imager defaults have changed to better match Modo - Response now defaults to Linear, Gamma now defaults to 2.2 and Vignetting now defaults to 0
- VERY IMPORTANT: The plugin will now correctly convert the Modo scene and image ocio colorspace settings to the Octane Image Gamma values. This means if you have saved scenes with the 8 and 16 bit colorspace at a setting other than Linear (as per the manual), then Image gamma values will change when you render with this release of the plugin. At this stage sRGB, sRGBf, rec709, gamma2.2 are converted to a 2.2 gamma, gamma1.8 is converted to a 1.8 gamma and everything else remains linear/no correction (1.0 gamma). The Octane Environment IBL does NOT take into account the Modo ocio settings.
- Changed the default values for the Camera settings Use Modo Film Offset, Use Modo Clipping Distance, Use Modo Focus Distance and Use Modo F-Stop for Aperture to ON
- The default Environment is now the Texture Environment, rather than Daylight Environment, and Use Modo Environment Power and Rotation properties are now defaulted to ON
- Fixed issue where the octane.saveAnimation command was not exporting animated Environment channels
- Modo Area Lights, Point Lights and Photometry Lights which do NOT have a mesh item (ie. Octane emitter) attached to them will now convert to an Octane emitter automatically. The emitter geometry will automatically be created, and the Octane material will be created from the Modo point and area light material. You can still use the Create Octane Emitter function to override this default behavior
- Revamped the proxy system so animations inside ABC nodes in an OCS/ORBX will render correctly.
- Fixed error when exiting Viewport Navigation mode and transferring the Octane camera back to the Modo camera
- Added support for environment material zenith color channel
- Added support for constant layers in environment
- Added automatic conversion of Modo transparent materials with a non-zero Absorption Distance to an Octane Specular material with an Absorption
- Fixed motion blur error when Use Modo Shutter Speed was NOT ticked

The OSX build does not have the remapped keys for Viewport Navigation - I will try to get this into the next release.
