Hi everyone,

we are extremely proud to announce the availability of Octane Render 1.0! We would like to thank all of our beta users and
customers for helping us pass this important milestone by offering invaluable feedback, bug reports and suggestions that
resulted in a rock solid product.


Features/Functionality

Please visit the Features page for an overview


Gallery and Videos

Have a look at our Gallery and Video page to see what Octane Render can do


Fully integrated plug-ins (eight in development with more to come)

Octane Render is also available as an integrated plug-in for popular 3D modeling packages such as Autodesk 3ds Max,
Autodesk Maya and Smith Micro Poser and will soon be available for Autodesk Softimage, Autodesk AutoCAD,
Daz3D Daz Studio, Newtek Lightwave and Maxon Cinema4D. The tightly integrated plug-ins deliver Octane Render's
incredible speed and quality right in the viewport of the 3D host app, allowing artists to interactively change lights, camera,
materials and object placement and immediately see the rendered result with final quality. This revolutionary real-time
workflow is a game changer for animators and other 3d professionals.

I simply cannot believe my luck.

About a week ago, I ordered the parts to build a new machine with a decent CUDA graphics card to check out Octane. The results seemed pretty impressive.
The parts came in days late because of the holiday, I put this machine together LAST NIGHT, pulled down the Max/Octane demo, and the price of Octane doubled overnight.

THAT is simply amazingly bad timing.
