Hello everyone I`m new in the community.

I've buyed the Octane Plugin for MAX to work with it for hemispherical projections. Unfortunately, I realize that a spherical cam is not the same than a fisheye. Will this feature be available in the near future?

In THIS thread it seems that the spherical distortion is already implemented, but I can't find these function in the plugin.

Thanks for your help.

It is here.

Oh, thank you Karba for the fast answer!

I found it yesterday by myself, sorry for wasting your time. I was only focused on the spherical cam and do not realize that a normal cam can have an 180° angle, too.

It´s really time for a proper manual....
