If I load an octane 2022 project into the new octane 2023, by default the chromatic aberration and lensflare sliders are set to full power. This means all old projects are guaranteed to not look anything like they originally did.

Can we have these settings set to 0 for loading an old file please.

In Octane settings or Camera tag? Can we have the example project to see the problem?

Every project to be honest.

3 cubes in 2022 with some soft bloom

If I save and load the same file into 2023 then all my projects (which use bloom) do this

Project attached.

What's strange here, I cannot see this behavior on my old scenes or on a simulation of what you do. Even I don't give 25.0 or 1.0 values for the parameters by default or so.

Additional info, Octane 2022 is running with c4d R26, octane 2023 is running on c4d 2024.1 Maybe has an impact
