Dirt Node Error

[miohn]

Hi,

don't remember if this has always been the case, but its
certainly wrong.

Why does a material with dirt-node which is applied to an object
interact with other objects?

Imagine an old rusty box.
Now I put a new pen inside and immediately the box rusts where the new pen
is placed a second before?

If I want interaction between different objects there is AO or I would use proximal-shader etc.,
but a material in this case should not interact with other objects, right?

Is there a workaround for this, or is this a bug?
R17, Octane 3.04.5-R2

it worked like this forever, it can be considered a feature if you add like two intersecting pipes, you automatically get an edge where it crosses, and it doesn't have to be a single object..
- it behaves like AO..
- haven't found a workaround though,

Hi Mike,
dirt is like the proximal shader, so if you want it to stay, just bake it

Hi beppe,

thanks!

Sorry, but now one stupid question, because so far I have only baked with an oven:
How do I do this in Octane?
