The glow effects in the octane render settings should look identical to the glow effects in the camera tag right? I cant get these to match.

Octane settings glow:

Does the dissimilarity occur when deselecting "Scale with film" and without and any FX from the Lens Effects section?

Is the "color management" consistent and properly set?

Hi boxfx,
thanks for the report, we are looking into it.
Please use the Camera Post Effect for now.

ciao,
Beppe

Scale with film makes no difference, though on a side note this setting seems to be missing from the camera glow version UI.

Color management is 100% defaults

Ok, please remove the installed c4doctane version and upgrade to 2023.1.2-R2 stable:

Then correct the General Post Effects values, and you should have almost the same result.
There is still an issue with Spread Start value, and will be fixed in next update.

ciao,
