Hello everyone. Since a new C4D version came out that now has Particles Based Liquids, I thought I make it a tradition and tell you how you can render those with motion blur in Octane.
Actually it's more easy said then done, It took me four hours of trying around with velocity channels and Vertex Color- as well as Vertex Map tags to get it working properly. So Strap in and find out how to do this. Either with a around 14 Min explanation. Or if you are just interested in the solution, you can jump to 13:58 to just watch it all come together.
