normal map translation issue

[jimho]

when a material is translated to octane material (e.g.from vray )I always found the normal maps are put into bump slot,
is this a bug and can be fixed?
Thanks!

Hey jimho,

Are you using an old version of Octane? This was corrected in .18 ( I think )

----------------

1. Convert Select Objetc dont work ( for me at least )

2. I just don't understand why in some cases, he covnerte with the wrong gamma and with Multiply Node

Hello Jimho,
please press "reset default setting" in Octane global preferences.
