Hey guys,

Here's the first true area lights rendered image with octane.
lots more to do (efficiency wise), but 2.3 will make people very happy i think ;)

The materials have an extra channel 'emission', that you can texture like any other channel, including procedurals, maps etc...
There is also news on the MLT front, but i will leave that until we've made more advancements, but things are looking very good. ;)

Awesome :)

Do you think it would be possible to hijack the ambient channel of OBJ materials for emission export?

hmmmm, not sure i don't think that will give expected results, and maybe confuse users.
imo these are 'lightsources' not ambient channels...

I know, but OBJ/MTL doesn't support light sources, or did I miss something? But you are probably right, because most Octane exporters didn't cannot influence the OBJ export that much, that lights get exported as objects with ambient materials. I forgot that.
