Thank you Jerrymeer, this solved my problem.

I had the 441.66 Studio driver you recommended in your earlier post.

See attached image for gpu info.

Thanks for the help Beppe!

Thanks Beppe, updating the driver to 441.66 worked - but it wound up increasing render times and causing c4d to hang quite a bit with rtx on and off. So for now I'll be reverting to the old driver I had.

I appreciate the help though!

Hello,

I'm trying to get RTX turned on in C4D with Octane 2020.1_XB3_R2. When I go into Octane Settings -> Settings -> Device Settings "Use RTX acceleration (experimental) is grayed out. What are the software requirements that I might be missing to run rtx?

Thanks Mib, unfortunately my scene does have glass as do a few other rooms from the animation, I uploaded the scene without interior features. Light fixtures and bathrooms have glass so I'll probably have to bump up those samples there.

Thanks so much!! Would you be able to run through your thought process for optimizing the scene?

Thanks for the tips! I'll try out a 0 opacity emitter with a high temp. similar to environment lighting. Boosting the adaptive sample min samples to 640+ will only ensure the whole scene undergoes a minimum 640 right? From my renders so far it seems the whole scene is rendering until 2000+ samples ...

I read a few suggestions regarding white walls and how that can bring in noise to a scene, but the material is not 100% white and also contains a plaster/wall texture bump. I've thought about adding a little emission to the material but it didn't play so hot when I did it initially. I'll try giving ...

Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I'm not sure If I can work with that because the ultimate animation is a seamless walkthrough, and this particular instance pans 180.

Hello all,

I know this is a topic quite heavily discussed on all render forums, and I've read a few topics here on Otoy regarding octane, the problem is, I just can't seem to get rid of it.

I've got a few questions that hopefully someone can answer for me, but first here's a break down of my scene ...
