Having issues getting dirt texture to work.
I tried loading dirt into the Diffuse/Bump/Normal channel. I don't see a difference...
What am I doing wrong?
I'm using the plugin, not Octane standalone.

Any tutorials for the C4D plugin itself? (Not the standalone version)

Is there a texture I can download from the Live DB as an example?

Thanks.

The best option for this is to use a mix material with the mix input as a dirt texture:

Hi,

I'm currently playing with Mixtexture in Diffuse Channel, in order to get dirt on my materials.

As soon as I'm using a MixTexture or MixMaterial, the material is no longer visible in Cinema4D's view. Is there a way to resolve that?

Aoktar, this is a screenshot about how I'm using the Dirt, and how the mix material prevent me to see my materials in the Cinema4D view.

Hope it will help you to find where I may have made a mistake...

I'm running Octane Render 0.8.1b SDK 1.2 with Cinema4D R14 on Win7, with 2 GTX Titan.
