Octane Render Target

 

The Octane Render Target node is the heart of an Octane render. It is where most of the parameters reside for controlling a rendering such as Kernel type, Environment, and Render Passes. You can create an Octane Render Target in the default Houdini® MAT network (Figure 1) because the Octane ROP references this location by default (Figure 2).  However, you can create the Octane Render Target node in any MAT network.

This generates an OUT Render Target with all the appropriate OctaneRender® nodes connected for the scene to render (Figure 3).
