Diamond with dispersion ?

Hello,
I have been trying out octane from a week and it sounds very promising.
I have a small question.

I am aware the dispersion is not yet implemented in the program.
But, is it possible to produce a material with 3 different refraction values ? More like blending 3 different material with slightly different IOR values ?? I am aware its possible with post compositing but is there any solution to do it directly with material using some node graph editor ?

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Regards
JEETZ

Hi,

Not at this time, you can only blend textures with the nodes, there's no material level blending yet.

Thanks for quick reply.
I will be looking forward for the dispersion feature in the first official release.
Is it going to be implemented in the next release of beta version ?

Hi,

We are not sure yet, probably not in 2.3.
We have enough on our list for 2.3 currently.
