Update: I was trying to render these with motion blur but ultimately decided against it. I just checked and their object tags still had motion blur switched on so I set it to none and it appears to be rendering without distortion now. At least on the one frame I test rendered. Running the whole shot ...

Hi - I have a cached dynamics animation in Cinema 4D 2024 which I have rendered using The standard C4d renderer for approval. All looks fine. Now I am rendering the finished thing in Octane (latest version) and the objects are distorting badly. Any idea why this would be? It does seem to be the ...

Thanks a lot for looking into that. Figured it was some kind of accuracy problem because the scene is so small..

Here's a simplified scene showing the problem

And how it renders for me

Does anybody know what causes these strong black lines at intersections of overlapping geometry? This model is just a bunch of soft round shapes all overlapping but this is how they render whether I use a simple diffuse or universal material. The objects are very small and simply scaling the scene ...

That’s the odd thing, couldn’t find a culprit. When I’d totally reassembled it, the scene that crashed a lot worked for a while. But later became unstable again. But it’s not just this one scene. Other very simple scenes were crashing s24 too, always when launching IPR and blaming the Octane plugin ...

I found this thread because I am experiencing the same thing. I only recently upgraded to S24 having used S20 until now but it has been very temperamental with Octane. It frequently crashes so I recently tested my scene by removing all scene elements and reintroducing them one by one to find the ...

Like the others I'll usually just buy something for the mesh so OBJ, or FBX is fine. Even if the textures are usable, I find that I like to change them for my use, they're almost always too low res for my kind of work but that's OK, texturing is the fun part anyway!

Hi Beppe

Thanks, your message may have been what tipped me to delete the libosmesa.dylib file originally and that fixed Cinema not launching but I've got a feeling it also killed Octane for me. Been having a fiddle and reinstalled CUDA etc and now it seems to be happy again so all OK for now...

Hey all, this thread was diverted and I've been working with Arnold in the meantime but I'd really like to get Octane working on my Mac. I there any official response Otoy can give me? I can't be the only user in this situation, how can I fix it?
