Hi,

How can I save correct alpha channel when rendering with Alpha channel turned ON under Octane settings, kernels tab?
No matter if I have Keep environment ON or OFF. I keep getting dark edge around my subject when reading it in to Nuke. I am rendering out my image sequence using Render AOV Group and not directly from C4D save settings.

Using Cryptomatte AOV I managed to get proper alpha, but it will slowdown render time so I much prefer solving this issue somehow.

Thank you!

Hi,

Sounds like an improper "alpha" encoding or comp setup. The "Alpha" page is planned but until then, here is a short section that goes over that.
