Re: OctaneX Enterprise PR7 for BigSur

This is such great news. I'm amazed by all of the work that the team at Otoy have done to bring, and then keep, Octane on the Mac. Thank you! I'm wondering if anyone might be able to give me a sense of the performance of the M1 chip, as I am in the process of purchasing a new laptop and would love ...

Re: Octane X for Mac with AMD!!!

I'm also very eager to hear additional details about this! Waiting to purchase hardware depending on the performance of Octane on AMD hardware running in MacOS. It would be amazing to build scenes on a Mac Pro, then send larger renders to the Nvidia render boxes.

Re: Insufficient free RAM Preferences

Thanks for your reply, Paul. Well, yes, the too many verts warning is understandable and I’ve learned how to work around that. Yet, reviewing this thread, I do not believe any of the three people commenting have raised an objection to this dialogue box. To reiterate: the problem is with the ...

Re: Insufficient free RAM Preferences

Ha, yes, this is exactly what I’ve been playing with. I’d like to second what Funk is saying. If there is a way you could make this optional Paul, I’d appreciate it. Perhaps this is not an issue with Mac OS because of how the scratch disks work by default when RAM pages out? Appreciate your comments ...

Re: Insufficient free RAM Preferences

Thanks for confirming this, Funk. How did you manage to resolve this problem? I tried the downgrading of GeForce drives but this did not help, unfortunately. I can confirm that the exact same file exported to Octane standalone from my Mac renders without issue on the windows computer that has the ...

Re: Insufficient free RAM Preferences

Hi Paul, thanks for your reply. 16 GB is installed on a fresh install of Windows 10 on the Razerblade 15” Nothing else is running on the machine. I’m receiving this error message with Max Verts set to only 500 and a simple low poly cube in the viewport. Just like the gentleman above describes. I ...

Re: Insufficient free RAM Preferences

Paul, thanks for all of your excellent work on this plug in!

Sadly I can also confirm that this is a bug that I am experiencing. Even a simple cube now triggers this warning and locks me out of rendering in Octane!

Re: Razer Blade and Core

Sorry to hear about your trouble. I have the Stealth running a 1070 and am in the process of setting up a MacBook Pro with 750m. From my limited experience, plugging the card in the egpu into an external monitor helps with these situations. Have you tried that?
