BSOD with C4d 17.5 and Octane 3 but not Octane 2

We have two pretty beefy systems. One with 8 Titans on a server and an Amfeltec rack running C4d 17.5 and one with 5 Titans with the same rack running C4d 18 . The big server works brilliantly with Octane 2.2X but crashes with 3.X. All the drivers are up to date.
Everything else is pretty much the ...

Re: BSOD with c4d 17.055 update

I am having the same problem. Octane 3.04.3 with Cinema 4D 17. Using 6 Titan Xs. After some use the computer freezes on a Blue screen.

Work fines with 2.25 - R4. Once we update to 3 the computer gets a Blue Screen after 30 minutes or so of use. Is this a hardware issue or a Windows OS issue? Is ...

Re: OSX GPU limits

If I understand this above discussion it would seem our Macs are SOL. We upgraded to Mavericks to get the two Titans to work with the latest Nvidia drivers. I had hoped that the Amfeltec racks that we use with our PC's would be the solution, but they crash on boot and the very nice support guy at ...

Re: Curtain Material

Thank you for the help.

Here's a still of my results. The curtains are dark, they don't look white. I put scattering medium into Medium and put the float value in Scattering to 15. The roughness is .001. The curtains' geometry is very thin.

Is there anyway to get the curtains brighter?

Thanks ...

Curtain Material

I'm trying to come up with a material for curtains, but nothing I try gets the look I want.

I've attached stills of the scene I'm working on. One has a regular diffuse material on the curtains and the other uses the "Curtains" material from the LiveDB. And the third still is the look I'm trying to ...

Re: Version 2.16.2 - Latest stabile release


Ok so just to clarify, I place this octane_log_flags.txt in the same folder I find the _BugReport.txt? What is the path of Cinema 4D application?

No. I mean the place of C4D's installed folder. You should see C4D exe/application in same place.

Ok got it. I'll send you some bug reports when ...

Re: Version 2.16.2 - Latest stabile release


can you give me more clues about crashed scenes and scenarios? Are you using octane netrender with some clients? I have tested render queue for some scenes without problems. Do you have enough free vram at all time in render session? Are you working on same c4d host while render queue is running ...

Re: Version 2.16.2 - Latest stabile release

We are having some issues with octane crashing randomly during rendering on our computers. It seems that it often happens after one render has completed all its frames. The render queue seems to always crash between renders. Sometimes it even crashes in the middle of render. Could this be caused by ...

Re: TITAN Black: Memory Issue

Hi Aoktar,

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. We have added dual 6 gig card setups to our studio. One pair on a Mac, one on a PC. We are getting render failures mostly on the Mac. I've attached a couple of reports. The limit we seem to be reaching is no longer a vram issue but may be a polygon ...
