I'm having an issue with tonemapping info passes and EXR files from Octane version 3.
When i try to render out a multilayered EXR sequence with all my beauty and info passes, the beauty passes looks normal, but the info passes are not tonemapped in the EXR files.
Both the beauty- and the info passes looks normal inside of Octane.
This is just the case for EXR's tho. If i try to render out a 16 bit PNG sequence for every pass, the infopasses gets tonemapped.
Rendering a multilayered EXR worked fine in v2. Every info pass got tonemapped as long as you checked the "tonemap" button under the render passes node.
Is this a known issue with V3, or am i doing something wrong?

This changed in version 3.0. Pre version 3.0, the info passes were tone mapped immediately during rendering so you had to choose before you started rendering. In 3.0, we dropped this limitation. Now you can decide on saving whether to apply tonemapping or not. As a consequence, you cannot have untonemapped beauty passes and tonemapped info passes in a single multi-layer exr any more.

cheers,
