Escaped center geometry support and scene AI.Universal Camera: The new fully-featured universal camera supports distortion, DOF, thin lens/fisheye / abberation+distortion, and much more.Cryptomatte: A new Cryptomatte pass contains the masks for all object layers or all materials in a scene, improving post-processing workflows in Octane.

You can now specify multiple sampling modes (2×2, 4×4) up-sampling for your rendered image directly in Octane. The AI up-sampler works similar to the AI denoiser first introduced in Octane 4, with a progressive and a one-stop up-sampling mode. AI Upsampler: Octane now includes a built-in AI up-sampler in Octane Imager.New vertex displacement and vertex displacement mixer nodes work with any texture you provide, whether it’s a procedural texture, OSL texture, images, or even projections.

Octane also allows you to mix/layer vector/height displacement maps using the new displacement mixer node.

OSL and procedural vertex displacement: You can now render procedural and OSL vertex displacement (either height or vector displacement) before rendering.

Spectron™ Procedural Volumetric Lights: allow you to create procedurally driven volumetric lighting – like spotlights – with blockers, barn doors, gels, and more.

You can now render triangle-free geometry using all of Octane’s built-in OSL and texture shaders and more. With Vectron, you can create procedurally generated scenes entirely on the GPU without using GPU VRAM and with zero memory footprint.

Vectron™ : Octane Vectron (Vector-Polygon) provides infinite procedurally generated scenes, volumes, and geometry which bypass meshes and volumes.

New Rounded Edges: simplifies the process of importing and converting objects in Octane with a robust workflow for creating ultra-realistic corner and bevel details.

NVLink: Gives you the ability to effectively double GPU VRAM by combining two cards into one pool of fast shared (not mirrored) memory for complex renders.

The Spectral Hair Material enables different coloring modes for hair, as well as multiple roughness parameters for different scattering behavior along a hair strand. With Random Walk SSS and Octane’s new Spectral Hair Material, you can easily create photorealistic digital characters.

A new Random Walk medium allows you to create ultra-realistic skin and other absorption/scattering materials in Octane.
