Hey there guys, I’m trying to reverse engineer my render in Blender Octane (image on the right) back into Cycles (image on the left).
But the shadows are really grey and dead. Is there a way to revive the shadow colours like how I had in my Octane version?
Thanks in advance.
The colors in the shadows are mainly from bounce light. Most of your objects are black, therefore your shadows don't receive much colored light.
Finish all your materials and then you can tweak the lighting to get closer to the Octane version (there will of course always be a slight difference).
Thanks man, major brain fart there since i’ve been using Octane too much and not Cycles
