This bug keeps popping back up with different version. Currently I am running Blender 4.0 with the OctaneBlender addon version 28.10 (not running the standalone build). I've attach a blend file with the problem mesh, which was exported from Plasticity into Blender. The mesh renders perfect with ...

thank you for confirming this lino!

I think vertex normals were broken in the custom version a few version back too. My work depends on vertex normals, so I hope we can get this resolve asap.

thanks again for checking!

Vertex normal do not render correct in Octane addon version, but in Cycle it looks correct. I'll attach a blend file.

Thank you galleon27 and juanjgon! I didn't even know how to delete a attribute and had to learn about attributes, so using the delete attribute node was the answer!

I'm new to Octane and Houdini, so i'm probably doing something wrong but my IPR renders are purple, even though I applied a material to the mesh. Can someone take a look at my simple scene and let me know what i'm doing wrong. I'm running Houdini Indie 18.0.499 with Octane 2020.1.3.

when will finish this plugin?

It will be ready for beta testing shortly, so I would expect a release in the first quarter of next year.

Will the plugin work with Modo 601?

thanks guys! I just wanted to make sure

I did a search and couldn't find an answer to my question. I'm currently running Octane on one machine. Do I need to deactivate my license before installing a new version of Octane? I would probably uninstall old one then install new one as it comes out.

I agree, look at Moi 1.0 its been around for years at 195 USD and its pirated yet the guy is still in business

Then, a few weeks after that, we we will release the final 2.3 with MLT and the new anti-piracy (which is actually a very nice feature which everyone will love) stuff.


Overall sounds like a great plan

But i hope you don't spend too much time on anti piracy stuff, no matter what you do - they ...
