2.5 Hours later, multiple full delete/reinstalls I tried downloading maya from website rather than using the 'autodesk app' and it finally worked. Not sure if coincidence or it the autodesk app is causing some bad magic. Anyways just a heads up to anyone having similar problem.

Cheers

Octane stopped rendering this morning.
Reinstalled maya, then octane. Now can't get plugin to load:

Error: file: C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2023/scripts/others/pluginWin.mel line 316: Unable to dynamically load : C:/Program Files/OctaneRender VRE for Maya/2023/plug-ins/OctanePlugin.mll

Also, when rendering an image a tab briefly appears with the render aov's , other octane settings. However it disappears immediately and I can't seem to get it to stay visible to actually use it... any way I can fix this?
Thanks again!

Looks like changing those settings stoped crashes while opening orbx files. Thank you.

Shocked you haven't experienced this... if i have the live viewer running for a few minutes and open/close several orbx materials to edit... generally by the 6th material open I freeze/crash. Has been happening since maya 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022 and now 2023.

Can't imagine I'm the only one having this problem.

Has been ...

Is this anywhere in sight...?

Hello,
Is there a way to apply a diffuse/glossy/toon/etc material to this fluid?
I've seen several posts showing how to apply the medium volume but what about just a regular material? Thanks

Upgraded from 2x 2080's to 1 2080 for display and 1x 3090 for engine... sunlight position seems to crash slightly less but 1/2 when i open 'edit orbx' material while i have octane render window enabled it's an immediate crash.
