Does anyone know if this product will work in OR?

http://www.daz3d.com/new-releases/daz-s ... rt-shaders

It says that the shader can be layered over the original material. Will this work in OR? Or is there another way to add dirt to objects in OR? I found a dirty window shader in OR but not a general one for different objects such as clothes and solid objects.

Daz studio shaders can't be used in Octane.

There is a dirt map brick in octane that you could play about with.

Unless it's generating a dirt textures map in LIE in some way, then no you can't use it, but we have no way of knowing for sure if that's what it does.

The only thing you might be able do is use the texture maps and then try and work out how the DS shader uses those maps to do what it does and then try and replicate it in Octane, which may not be possible, as 3Delight can do a lot of advances and complicated (or even simple) things in shaders that Octane can't do.

I'm almost tempted to buy it and try and work it out, as they look really nice.

Thanks for your advice. I'm very tempted myself but might will wait until a sale.
