Thank you, solved going back to my previous version.
Tried again with the latest stable version and got the same not launching result.
Will go back to previous version again and raise a ticket with support.

Thanks for the reply Beppe, the problem is I can't get to the plugins folder as c4d won't launch so I can't get the edit preferences to open the plugins folder

Thanks

Hi,
just tried to install the latest Octane stable the usual way (replace C4doctane folder in plugins and removed the versions not required).
Now C4d starts with the greeting window loading etc. but stops before completely loaded (before viewport visible).
Was working fine this morning.
Apologies if ...

have been playing around with this and the baking work around is a better solution, thanks Beppe

On a wider topic, a couple of friends and I all have ongoing issues with the ...

Hey Beppe

I found a 'fix'.
I had a scatter in the scene, if this was turned off it solved, although in general I have a lot of issues with the mix material crashing for some reason.
I made the material a blend material rather than a mix which also made it stable

Hi Beppe,,

I am on 2020 1.5 TBH I have had a lot of problems with the mix material for quite a while. The moment I put a material in to the mix I get a crash

This material works until I duplicate the material and change the vertex map

Thanks
