I seem to always end up here complaining about how I love Octane, Path tracing is hands down the best look of many renderers with minimal effort, and yet I cannot use it in C4D on Mac. It crashes, or hangs consistently. I have a kind of workflow which involves animation in C4D then rough materials ...

I have been having problems with Octane in C4D on my MacBook Pro M1 Max where the render view when closed would crash the app. I have reported to Beppe and he confirmed the issue which is not the same on Ventura. I can't up date but I have a hack which involves building a layout that includes the ...

So this afternoon, I started using Octane and I couldn't believe I didn't get a crash. I thought the gremlins had gone and I was very happy. Unfortunately after dinner I went back in and C4D crashed. Aaaaargh. Very frustrating

I believe Beppe is on it although he is super busy one everything else ...

Thanks. I looked at the settings and denoiser was checked, I’m just not sure how compatible this version of Blender is with M1 Max Apple computers

Hi

I am having issues in Blender Octane. Most of everything is working ok although it does seem more complicated than the version in C4D.

However the one issue I am having is that Denoising doesn't seem to work . I have followed the instructions for this and the viewport just stays grey. If I ...

@bepeg4d I installed and restarted my MacBook. I started using Cinema and all was fine and then it crashed. I have included the bugreports folder which also includes recent crashes. This is not my imagination and not a bad install. I hope you can shed some light on this

all the best

I have reinstalled Octane countless times and am running 2023.1.3. It is still not working. I tried it again on a scene that wasn't the one that was crashing. But even a new scene from scratch still crashed. Not the Live Viewer bug, but I switched Denoiser on and then it hung.

So I am really over ...

Here is the crash. Sorry for the poor quality but it does show I am able to open the file play with it change settings but then when I close the live viewer it crashes. Every time. Now whether this is a file specific thing, or maybe my computer, I cannot work with this. I have wasted a ton of time ...

Here it is. Doesn't look like your install. Where do I get this installer from? Have to say it is one of the more confusing aspects of Octane. But I guess its also the fact that the M1 version is so bleeding edge

So this file is still giving me an issue. When I open it and work on it without opening the Live Viewer it's all good. I can then open Live Viewer and it renders beautifully. However if I close the Live Viewer I get a pretty consistent crash to a beach ball which needs a force quit. This is a ...
