Re: OctaneRender 2026.2.0.1 for Houdini Production (2026.2.0.1)

I noticed that Ctrl + Z isn't recognized by IPR as some action that needs an update, so if I work with a material and do ctrl + z to plug/unplug a node IPR won't refresh

Addon performance and Vulkan

Hi,

Not a daily user of Blender Octane, but I've been testing the new builds now, it feels like Vulkan in Blender is a reason behind some instabilities, for example running Vulkan viewport with Octane feels laggy. I also have a problem running 2x GPUs in Cycles with Vulkan viewport, but that's off ...

Re: OctaneRender 2026.1.0.1 for Houdini Production (2026.1.0.1)

Just found a weird behavior, not sure it's supposed to work like this?
I usually use "Priority Level" at high in "Options", I tried to set it to "Low" just now, and it seems to be affecting only 1x GPU and it's usually the one that has "Tonemap" checkbox on.
I think it's supposed to affect all GPUs ...

Re: OctaneRender 2025.5 for Houdini production (2025.5.0.1)

Hi Bruce,

The IPR issue I reported wasn't fully fixed.. Now the IPR doesn't consume CPU as much when rendering which is great, but the IPR responsiveness is still terrible compared to 2 releases ago. Why was the IPR performance damaged since the last release and still wasn't fixed in this one?

The ...

Even the CPU is at 50% load constantly when IPR finished rendering and idling, did you put some kind of a Miner Bloatware there in the plugin? :lol:
