you did not pay for V4 you paid for V3, so I would not accuse someone who gives me V4 for free in beta and then stable.

I never said anything remotely related to this. What are you talking about?

there is no ETA or release date about plugin or SA.

Then what is the point of having a thread called "Hello World: OctaneRender 4 is here" with a considerable amount of web marketing and Youtube videos about it? That's quite the bait-and-switch, now isn't it?

It is unfair to students to not let us get a current, or rather an up to date version we can use with the software we are using in school. Plus I get .dll's missing everytime I try to start ...

I've gotta be really honest here, I'm ridiculously disappointed in Otoy for not updating the student version of the plugins for two years. They only support 3DS Max up to version 2013, although the very year they were released, Max 2015 was, too. No student from 2014 onwards has been using 2013. The ...
