We have quite a lot of features to be implemented.
We know that displacement and motion blur definitely have to be done.
What else?
You can select 3 features.
Please note that it is for info purposes only and we reserve the right use the info as the company sees fit.

done voting...i vote mainly for those things that can be added in standalone.
some of them can be done in 3d apps but will be BEST to have
and be supported in Octane.

1) As a stopgap for Particles and Volumetrics, a full featured implementation of OpenEXR 2.0's new Deep Data feature would allow you to more easily comp those passes generated from other sources. If it was a choice between having OpenEXR 2.0 in 6 months or Particles/Volumetrics in 12 months, I would opt for OpenEXR 2.0.

2) Please consider (if technically feasible) adding OpenVBD or Fields3D support when implementing Volumetrics.

3) Multilight in Octane would be really intriguing and I think *all* users would enjoy this feature.

@OctaneTeam: It's not a fair 1:1 comparison but it is interesting to note that Maxwell 3.x will be shipping with many of the features mentioned in this poll (Volumetrics, Multilight, OpenEXR 2.0, OpenVDB, OpenSubDiv, improved Hair/Fur and Motionblur performance).

^At the very least it may be helpful to see how they handled those features into Maxwell 3.
