Supported OSL Shader Types

OctaneRender^® supports three OSL node types:

Texture - An OSL texture shader is drawn using an Octane OSL texture node.
Projection - An OSL projection shader is drawn using an Octane OSL projection node.
Camera - An OSL camera shader is drawn using an Octane OSL camera node.

Each has its own requirements regarding the OSL shader signature. For these requirements, refer to the respective topics for each node in this documentation.

To learn more about programming with the Open Shader LanguageA shading language developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks. There are multiple render engines that utilize OSL as it is particularly suited for physically-based renderers., see The Octane OSL Guide.
