OTOY Forums

Hi,
many clients of mine are asking for animations similar to the pdf instruction manual look.
I need to render with a flat material that draws only the edges.
The result should be similar to the Vray toon shader with the possibility to switch on-off the ambient occlusion.
I need to adjust the line thickness and the color.

thank you

although someone did mention something can be done.. via wireframe rendering option.. which would be pretty nice -

- I am guessing you tried doing the dirt set on inverse as a shader - works ok on some scenes but behaves differently according to the scale of a object..

you can achieve something pretty good with DirectLight/ambient (White nev) and dirt texture (with normal inverted) but it's not a very good toon shader.
As far as i'm concerned, octane is missing simple shaders as toon, flat, fast sss, true architectural glass ...

I tried it but it is too slow.
Keyshot has nice shaders and because we use Octane also for industrial and product design renders I would like to see these shaders in Octane.
I don't understand why Inventor users didn't have requested yet this feature.
