Tutorial - How to use the Cycles to Octane Converter
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2023
- Hi, guys! As promised, I'm sharing the Cycles to Octane Converter Addon, remembering it will work if you are converting the objects from 3ds Max to Blender using the Max to Blender addon.
In this video, I explain how to use it. Also, I would like to share the link to my Blender Market channel, where you can find some of my images and props, and the link to my course for details.
Have a nice week!

cant thank you enough bro. blender community is overwhelmingly supportive
Happy to help!
You truly saved hours of my workflow with releasing this addon i really cannot thank you enough ... i love you man
Great to hear!
Thank you so much for this, saves me hours of work every month now!
Glad it helped!
Thanks so much for this! I was thinking about creating something similar but as with all good ideas, someone else done it already :D
:)
@@archivizual4236 By the way, sadly it does not work on the new addon version of Blender Octane, using Blender 3.6 LTS. (It cant find "Octane Geometry" key). I will try to debug myself if I have some time :(
Thank you very much u fr saved me
Happy to help
Man it works with Diffeomorfic, Thx!!
You are welcome
it shows all the textures in object mode but not render
Love this video! Thank you. Had a question. Is it possible to convert environment nodes? I have a “Moving Skies” add on and was wondering if there’s a way to convert the backgrounds to Octane Render.
Yes you can! use random map with gradient map
Hey man, awesome add on. Any word on 4.0 compatibility?
its not...
Could you tell where your 3ds max library mainly comes from? Especially when it comes to vegetation and small interior design items.
Hi. This library has been created on my company and it has more than 15 years. But I can give some sources: Evermotion and Maxtree.
Hey i have this error message when i convert my material : Python: Traceback (most recent call last):

Can you help me ?
same here on blender 4.0
Same here, trying to debug but still can't find solution.
Yeah.. definitely a Blender 4.0 issue it seems. Most add ons are broken unless updated
Olá, onde podemos encontrar o plugin para efetuar relink aos mapas?
Olá, então esse addon na verdade foi criado pela minha empresa para ajuda no workflow interno do time de produção, infelizmente ele nao ta disponivel na internet. Mas tenho certeza que no blendermarket tem algo bem parecido! :)
Interesting, Wish It Will be improved to be used in most of cases. (Btw, Octane actually have a node pretty identical to color ramp)
It will ! I hope soon!
Why this add-on isn't capable of converting materials of botaniq assets?
this addon is still in development,soon I will resease a new version
At this point you think your team is capable of writing code to convert typical cycles nodes, is it technically at all possible to make it work in just one click? First of all, can it manage to recreate the same shader that was created in cycles, using these specific nodes. Still, good job, even though it's a developmental version, this may convince many to try blender octane .
Hi AliG, I hope I have something better soon, honestly the way it was designed is working more then fine for my company, as we had too many models from 3ds max and we are still not intersted in models already built in blender. So the plan to start working on the addon again is in abou 2 months
Make a video comparing octane and cycles.
octane looks better right of the bat , that's why it's frustrating , imagine octane working with every cycles addons and stuff ...
I will :)
Yeah, it doesn't work at all
as I said it will work perfectly if you are converting the objects from 3ds max to blender using the max to blender addonn
it converts the nodes , but the displacement node is messed up because it's not the proper node , it converts into a cycle node for the displacement so it's not working and it's connected to "octane geometry" in the material output , same for the normals , you change the settings of the bump or the normal ..it doesn't do anything ,otherwise , yeah it converts the map ..but as soon as you have a more complex materials ..it's over ..better to bake honestly ,octane on blender is garbage anyway ..i mean i know i sound harsh ..but come on what are they doing at otoys , how many years octane in blender has been in dev and still no node wrangler for octane , people have to make addon to have a converter ..issue all the time i mean .it's just a shame ,they're just lazy , that's why barely nobody use blender octane, it's not against you man , but i feel like people put efforts , while it's the job of the company
Hi Paul, as I said in the video, this addon was developed to help my company convert models from 3ds max to blender, and for this purpose, it is working more than fine. Also, I said in the video that you may find problems converting objects already made in blender for example objects from Imeshh.
As for your complaints about Otoy, I agree with you, it is a shame they didn't build any converter yet!!!! So frustrating!
Unfortunately, octane is still much better than Cycles, and that's why it is still worth it!
There is a node wrangler octane edition but sometimes crashes
