How To…
OctaneRender®, out of the box, can immediately mimic the light that you live with every day (when using the Path tracing kernel). You can place a light in a dark void, and have it properly illuminate the world around it, just as what happens in the real world — your world.
Octane is very good at lighting — so good, in fact, that may be the reason you initially chose to use it. It’s easy to use, and feedback is immediate. There is nothing faster than Live Viewer in its class, offering near immediate feedback to every lighting change you make. You can learn more about Live Viewer here.
