Minor correction to the lighting section of the video as kindly pointed out by viewers, when using HDRI's be sure to set the "Legacy Gamma" value to 1, as opposed to 2.2. That will save you having crazy blown out images 😁
Spectral intensity is basically a chromatic aberration affect seen on older lenses where the colours separate and shift. Great tutorial, easy to understand. Coming from 20 years of 3ds Max and learning more about Blender. Appreciate the time.
31:16 I actually screamed. 31:43 I screamed louder. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all this. I started using blender 4 years ago and after 2 years I already felt like I knew the shader editor like the palm of my hand, which is the only reason why I didn't want to switch to Octane. Despite it looking so freaking cool just having all my nodes switched and renamed seemed unnecessary. Now I get it, they're fundamentally more complex. Definitely gonna be checking some of your videos dude, thank you so much!
vertex displacement, c4d noise, setting up the default scene, octane lights and everything else is so on point. NO BULLSHIT JUST GOLD all the way through. mind blowing insights and a genius script. please continue making the rest of the chapters.
Definitely need more tutorials on octane, I wanted to use it badly but shaders are so frustrating for me because I used cycles so long and I can create so complex materials with my eyes closed, but when it comes to new engine it’s always a pain, your videos about octane are not just basic stuff that no one gonna use in real projects, so it’s really helps when things shown on real projects like the one with product render, definitely helps a lot for understanding some nodes
Oh man, how pleased I am that you're making these super useful walkthroughs!!! until now there aren't videos covering everything simplified. Jon Hidalgo is great for archviz but he has a particular style and also because he's Brazilian somethings are difficult to convey for him. I watched all your c4d vids but I really want to stop relying on cinema. So thank you for your time, effort and sharing knowledge. I hope you make more great content!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge! This is a very niche combo on youtube and having this kind of high-quality content is just gold, great job and thank you!
Thank you so much, this is really helpful. I hope the next chapter will cover how to make use of the render passes your exported. For the area light, would you happen to know how to adjust the spread like in Cycles ? Again, thank you !
Hi there! Thank you for your tutorial. I'm currently learning about the nodes and material representation in Blender Octane. This video has been incredibly helpful for me, and I look forward to more tutorials on Blender Octane in the future.😍😍😍
Please do more Octane Blender tutorials or info video since i really would like to get to make my future Projects in octane but dont know where to get more knowledge for it
Great job, my friend! When is your next video coming out? Also, is there a good way to convert materials from CYCLES or EEVEE? It's scary to redo the materials. And LIVEDB isn't working, it's freezing directly. What's wrong there? It's frustrating
hey it was amazing, but why when i render dont get me high quality render, i just have problem with that , till now i just download ready scenes cuz of that
very cool, thank you. can't wait to see more 😉 I have a question about the difference between BSDF Octane and GGX? Maybe talk about it in a future video.
@JBRASH Hey thanks for your video i followed all your steps and iam still having trouble to get a sharp image out of octane. iam trying to render an image with 2500x2500 px with 2000 samples and it looks still very grainy and after the denoiser smushes the whole image and give me artifacts that look like compression. the image in the viewport looks way better do you have an idea what the problrm could be ?
You are a legend bro, thank you so much for giving this content for free. i have a question: Are the octane engine settings, node names, etc. common to all software like Cinema 4D, meaning that if I want to use Cinema 4D, I can use octane in the same way and with the same nodes and settings ?
Hey man havent even watch all of it but already happy with thuius tutorial. Im not new to octane but never found a good base so this is helpfull. The only thing i notice is that you didnt put your RGB image for the HDRI at a gamma of 1. Blender needs this to handle the colors and values properly. You dont have to do this with textures ui believe. But Your HDRI doesnt blow out when you put it to Legacy Gamma 1.00
thanks. i just downloaded blender octane and server, at the end of running the app it showed that the server license expires in one month, so will i be able to renew it for free?
Is there no way to increase the strength of a lamp? I am making a custom light setup which doesn't use an HDRI, but the lights are so weak that I can't create a real-life setup. This means that I can't move the light several meters back from where it is meant to be in the room. If I do move it back to it's proper location, the light emitted is so god damn weak that the scene becomes near pitch black
Just a doubt... Do I need to have a "camera" in the scene to use Octane? How are you able to utilize the viewport without first adding one? Hope seeing more videos from you! Nice one!
Tje deniiser in the virwport doesnt seem to work even. Because when you use a denouse pass and r nder it, the default pass returns a beauty noisy image and not a denoised beauty image. In the xompositor you need to take the denoise pass to get the denoised image. I think its implementation in the virwport is wrong. All vidoes i have seen about all stated it doesnt seem to ve actually returninf a denoised image
Hey, i am just moving from Keyshot + Vray to a new software. I want to do motion reels, product shots and abstract stuff do you recommend stock blender, blender+redshift or+octane? Or Cinema4d + Redshift for that? Best, Julian
Tried following along, but I don't have any settings under Octane Kernel and therefore no way to control the samples. Tried on two different PCs with and without Blender already installed (from Steam). Anyone know how to fix this?
Wowser they implemented octane in a very confusing method with some panel not being active but settings still work. For instance, that focus point, even though it's in that inactive panel it can still set items. That's really bad UX design. I also don't understand why they don't use a pinhole or none focus portal nt by default. Same as that user needs to do a tons of work before getting started. Really wonder why they made a custom build, but not took the time to really setup defaults properly

That will save you having crazy blown out images 😁
broooo why u stopped uploading :/ thats very good content, ecactly what i wane learn next...
I wonder why you did stop it. This tutorial is brilliant. Really. Thank you very much. I wish you would carry on.

The metallic material in octane are so next level and easy to use, that's insane!!!
texturing in octane is amazing. Gonna be about a dozen tutorials I can make about it immediately after this series is over 😂

MUITO OBRIGADO, COMECEI A ESTUDAR OCTANE NO BLENDER AGORA E ME DEPAREI COM ESSE VÍDEO, ELE ME AJUDOU BASTANTE.
It's unbelievable to find this for free, I hope that in the future you launch a course for everyone to buy, it will be a huge success! Thanks.
Thank you Paulo! Appreciate the support as always.
Bro u are a hidden gem. Please keep going! This is almost the only channel where my notification bell is on. Much love, wish u all the best❤🔥

Yes I’ll cover this in the lighting video when building the full scene! Hoping to get all of the rest of the videos out across this week.
@@jbrashfx ah yes please cover the gradient lighting too
Your explaination is super clear and simple. Looking forward to more video
Hey man, thanks for the amazing content, really helpful as octane is less explored in context of blender-octane videos, really good quality
dude i can't thank you enough keep pushing this fire content 💯
Means a lot, thank you!
This was great, super clear and I loved the pacing and delivery. Excited for the next entry 🤓💫
Why aren’t more blender artist on RUclips talking about Octane engine in blender, seems like a big step forward unless I’m wrong
It definitely is. There’s actually 3 creators (including myself) making this exact series right now. I think it’s catching a lot of traction.
@@jbrashfxThat's awesome to hear, I found this a really good introduction if not the best on yt, can't wait for future videos on this!
@@jbrashfx who are the other creators btw?
Keymapping is a huge upgrade bro. Quality always going up
Appreciate you man!
Hi there! Thank you for your tutorial. I'm currently learning about the nodes and material representation in Blender Octane. This video has been incredibly helpful for me, and I look forward to more tutorials on Blender Octane in the future.😍😍😍
Very relevant and helpful! Thank you!
Glad you found this helpful!
very very very very very very very good
Many many many many many many thanks
Please do more Octane Blender tutorials or info video since i really would like to get to make my future Projects in octane but dont know where to get more knowledge for it
hey man loved your videos
when is the next video coming ?
Great work! Really appreciate the Octane / Blender vids, keep it up! :)
thanks man this video really help me, hope you could keep with the series! thanks again
Anisotropic is a metal property. It shows rotation of a brush effect
It's a directional effect on the reflection, it's direction is controlled by the uv directions
Thnam you hope you do more octane blender
THANK YOU so much for these valuable videos! Can't wait for the next video, when is it coming out?
As soon as possible! Have had a busy few weeks
Great tutorial 💪, I did exactly what you did but the HDRI doesn't work for me. Do you know why?
Brother give more tutorials on product modelling advance plus how to make environment for games
Great job, my friend! When is your next video coming out? Also, is there a good way to convert materials from CYCLES or EEVEE? It's scary to redo the materials. And LIVEDB isn't working, it's freezing directly. What's wrong there? It's frustrating
A great tutorial! Somehow when i set up the c4d noise node with 3D transformation it wont work with bump nor with displacement. Anyone had that issue?
Amazing tutorial brotha! 🔥 Can’t thank you enough 🙏🏽
super helpful. Thanks for this!
Thank you so much!!!!!
do more tutorials about octane for blender. really helpful thank you
Great video!
hey it was amazing, but why when i render dont get me high quality render, i just have problem with that , till now i just download ready scenes cuz of that
very cool, thank you. can't wait to see more 😉
I have a question about the difference between BSDF Octane and GGX? Maybe talk about it in a future video.
I’ll talk about this in the texturing video (:
@@jbrashfx Oh great , thanks 👍👍
Stoked!!

@JBRASH
Hey thanks for your video
i followed all your steps and iam still having trouble to get a sharp image out of octane.
iam trying to render an image with 2500x2500 px with 2000 samples and it looks still very grainy and after the denoiser smushes the whole image and give me artifacts that look like compression.
the image in the viewport looks way better
do you have an idea what the problrm could be ?
Thanks for doing these, octane looks really good
Thank you, hope you enjoy watching!
In environmental textures, if you single click on the color space of texture nodes, you will find something different
You are a legend bro, thank you so much for giving this content for free.
i have a question: Are the octane engine settings, node names, etc. common to all software like Cinema 4D, meaning that if I want to use Cinema 4D, I can use octane in the same way and with the same nodes and settings ?
For the most part they are the same yes! It’s the best
is there anyway to change nodes blending mode? can't find it... like multiply etc.. thx
Have you used the plug-in version? How to use octane scatter? My version is OctaneBlender Addon 28.3 Beta
Hey man havent even watch all of it but already happy with thuius tutorial. Im not new to octane but never found a good base so this is helpfull. The only thing i notice is that you didnt put your RGB image for the HDRI at a gamma of 1. Blender needs this to handle the colors and values properly. You dont have to do this with textures ui believe. But Your HDRI doesnt blow out when you put it to Legacy Gamma 1.00
Good catch 😅 I did forget that during filming it seems. I’ll correct in the lighting episode! Thank you Martin.
When i import octane liveDB material, node tree comes without textures do you know a solution😢
thanks. i just downloaded blender octane and server, at the end of running the app it showed that the server license expires in one month, so will i be able to renew it for free?

I currently really like octane, but there is one problem when I render an image with alpha, the edges look rough and noisy, do you know how to fix it?
My render never go to my folder, and i have to use compositor to make denoising happen .. any clue?
Just a doubt... Do I need to have a "camera" in the scene to use Octane? How are you able to utilize the viewport without first adding one? Hope seeing more videos from you! Nice one!
U R an octane god
Not even close but I thank you! :D
Camera Visibility option is missing in Blender Octane right now, is there a solution ?

All vidoes i have seen about all stated it doesnt seem to ve actually returninf a denoised image
Just a question how is that your blender showing more than the default in terms of icon size and scene or are you using a 4k monitor?
I do use a 4k monitor. Is it hard to see?
@@jbrashfx No its not hard to see i was just surprised on how you managed to split so many windows in one go!
@JBRASHR Is there a solve for the No Net GPUs?
Hey, i am just moving from Keyshot + Vray to a new software. I want to do motion reels, product shots and abstract stuff do you recommend stock blender, blender+redshift or+octane?
Or Cinema4d + Redshift for that?
Best, Julian
Blender + octane is pretty amazing.
Have a look at geometry nodes tuts for motion
it's the same in c4d ( octane ) ?
Almost yes!
Thanks brother.
i think the world setup should be just : power of texture environment : 1 and the HDRI texture gamma to 1 the light will adjust correctly on the scene
Yea someone caught the legacy gamma error haha, will be fixed in lighting video :)
please make more tutorials thankyou
Where is part 3?
project file download link is broken
Files are unable to download🥲
why u switch for c4d to blender?
Tried following along, but I don't have any settings under Octane Kernel and therefore no way to control the samples. Tried on two different PCs with and without Blender already installed (from Steam).
Anyone know how to fix this?
The fix for me was to open a new file by going to File > New > Octane Default Startup. It then loads the kernels. Hope this helps.
It did. Thank you very much! @@GraehamM
Wowser they implemented octane in a very confusing method with some panel not being active but settings still work. For instance, that focus point, even though it's in that inactive panel it can still set items. That's really bad UX design.

chapter 3?
how to solve the problem with NO NET GPU who know?
thanks can u help me diamond rendering
plz
For Diamond renders user photon kernel type. And turn “allow caustics” on material shader.
3 4 5 6 7 8 .... more pls
Please do more videos about octane for blender 🙏🙏🙏😭 I just jumped from cycles to octane and I don't see tutorials about it in RUclips, I'm alone 🥲
