Hey neonZorglub!

Unfortunately, it did not help.

What I tried:
- the Octane user config file was deleted, new one was created on start
- I tried even to delete all ENU folder - no changes
- I set an option for logs generation in Octane cfg, but no logs files appear
- no plugins installed
- 2020.1 ...

Hmm... I have 3dsmax (all versions, 2018-2020) crash during Octane.dlr loading. 2019.1.5 was fine. Latest Nvidia drivers, and tried to uninstall and install plugin again.

It doesn't work with standard camera, but should work with octane one.
Yep. It works with octane camera. And as I see, it works in my other test scene. Should there be something with scene scale?..

Anyway, I hope you will able to fix autofocus for using with viewports, without cameras. In my case ...

Same here. After one switch to manual mode, it is stuck in it. No more autofocus at all. PS: 3dsmax 2014, Ocatane v2.0a 11/06

Why not? There two ways to do that - first with multipass camera effect, and second with almost any composing software (it's much faster and more flexible, imo).

Have same problem - as particle amount growing, light intensity falling (TP5, all particles are in one single mesh). That is really sucks. Cannot continue my work.
Hope you will able to fix it soon.

Hi!

OctaneRender_for_3ds_max_2013_COM_v1.0_beta_3.03_demo not working with my 3dsmax. Gray checkers on Octane viewport, and black VFB on render. No videocard activity.
Octane standalone demo version works fine. Latests versions of CUDA & NVIDIA drivers installed.
GTX560Ti + ATI7850, Win8x64.

PS ...

However, there is a great presentation video made by Karba and Philbo that shows, in great detail, the workings of the product, which should be enough to judge your purchase on Yes, I saw that video four or five times. Its good, but not enough for me.

I created simple scene, with 1mil polys ...

Okay.
I will wait for Octane for 3dsmax demo and look in direction of x2 GTX580 3GB.
Thank for help, guys!
