Re: Rounded edges fixed yet?
I haven't understood yet (I haven't in fact even thought about this before) what's the benefit of "rounded edges" feature in a render engine?
- Why you just don't model the edges as round as you want?
:?
Okay, for some text it could be a bit tedious to round all the edges manually, but.. it's ...

Re: Clear plastics for product viz
Try some different HDRIs as the environment.
Even the best materials on the bottles will look flat without something to show in the reflections.

Re: Smoke, fire, X particles support?
I've got a similar dilemma.
Octane 3.1 looks like it would be a better render engine for me than Cycles4D, but I have no idea if it's coming out this month, or year, or decade?

Re: Version 3.04.3 (01.11.2016) - Latest stable
I dont understood why the C4D picture viewer can translate CS-Trees but not the octane-live-viewer.
Whats diffrent?
The Octane live viewer is rendering what is in your C4D viewport. If CS is drawing a preview in your C4D viewport, but not creating actual data, then there is nothing for the ...

Re: Texture Emission works in Live Viewer but not in Render?
Using video files as textures inside 3D renders is generally a bad idea. Way too many things can go wrong as your system tries to dig up the one frame it needs from the Quicktime file.
Try converting the Quicktime to an image sequence. Cinema4D seems to run super smooth with TGAs.

I think the download might be corrupted. Try re-downloading a new copy of the plugin.

Re: Odd render behavior
SLI doesn't help Octane in any way.
If you physically remove the SLI Bridge, you can be sure to never have this problem again.

Re: Constant crashing in live viewer.
Do you use a Wacom?
I get the same sort of screen corruption and lockup sometimes if my pen is on the tablet while I'm also changing parameters with the keyboard.

Re: Quixel SUITE/PBR shader for Octane inside c4d
You could try putting the file path of your textures in the Texture Path slots in the main CInema4D Preferences (it's under the "Files" heading).
If CInema4D can't find a texture in the same directory as the Cinema4D project file, it will look in through the folders in the Texture Path slots.
