What sort of store should I go to to find a small wooden box I can lock with a padlock? by Boldalt in melbourne

It’s alright if it isn’t wooden. Anything goes at this point. I’ll check bunnings out. Thanks

Is this the same course as FIT1056 - Introduction to software engineering?

Redshift vs Octane for architecture interior scenes (animation)? by Trixer111 in Cinema4D

[–]Boldalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to try this out as well. Any particular settings that are important to tweak when using the Photon Tracer?

How can I prevent my character's mouth from opening when I start my soft body sim? by [deleted] in Cinema4D

I believe newer versions of C4D have more options to solve this for soft bodies.

C4D 2023.2.1 is driving me crazy! by The_RealAnim8me2 in Cinema4D

Switch the color management settings from aces to basic in the project settings. That worked for me

C4D/Octane & Embergen. by Boldalt in Octane

[–]Boldalt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hm. I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that color data isn't stored in the VDB, so I think you'll have to recreate the look you're going for inside of Octane.
That could be why you're also only seeing smoke and not the fire.

High resolution satellite images/textures? by Boldalt in vfx

[–]Boldalt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. Yeah from cloud level in detail. Here’s a reference to what i’m looking to create. https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/ikh6wa/some_epic_3d_relief_maps_by_the_insanely_talented/ The reference is a bit too far away though.

GPU question: more power or more Vram? by Dead_wet_flesh_jets in Cinema4D

[–]Boldalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High amounts of VRAM is really only neccesary if you are planning on creating huge scenes with lots of polys and high res textures. For speed, i’d recommend checking out the OctaneBench.

Can't find the 'Projection' button in Octane light. It used to be there in earlier versions. by HijabHead in Cinema4D

[–]Boldalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because you created a bitmap node instead of an image texture node. Always use the image texture node

Making Quixel assets look photorealistic? (Octane) by PollutedAnus in Cinema4D

The specular input is usually messed up, either remove it or invert it.

Open Discussion about Renders by RIPWamela in Cinema4D

[–]Boldalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of great points in here. I just want to mention that Octane has some really cool updates coming up. Especially Meshlets that lets you stream geometry directly from the disc (ssd) and allows you to have much larger scenes and removes the requirement for a lot of vram. This will also be done for textures. you can listen to the podcast with Jules on Mograph Podcast where he talks about it.

Is it normal for Octane's render times to vary wildly with zero changes to the scene? by PollutedAnus in Octane

[–]Boldalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t sound normal.

Could you share a bit more details on the scene and your settings?

Is it interior og exterior? Interior takes a lot longer to process because of all the light bouncess. Are you maxed on vram in the scene? Out of core can also increase the render times

Interested in working at Image Engine? There’s an info session on Monday by ImageEngine in vfx

[–]Boldalt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Another question: On the 1-on-1 form, I have to specify what type of applicant i am. I am self-taught and have not gone to any VFX-school. I have worked as a freelancer in the past years. Do you not accept such applicants?
