Re: RTX 5080/5090

If they work with the current OctaneBench, you will likely see the test results there when they become available.

Sure, but at that point i might get one myself and find out :-D Or read some review. I was curious the day it was released, and since i havent seen info on that anywhere, i still am ...

RTX 5080/5090

So RTX 5000 series has been revealed today. Do we have any info regarding what to expect in terms of Octane performance? I am pretty curious, if the speedup will be in-line with previous generations (2080Ti to 3090 to 4090), therefore almost 2x?

Re: Otoy Octane Black Friday 2024 bundle deal?

Hi guys,

@Timmaigh: start with the new Standard Surface material coming from Arnold Render, it has a Sheen Weight pin.

Here's what they said...

By clicking "View Info" next to the license on the Licenses Subscription page, you will see the actual expiration date.
Kind regards,

However, I did also email the helpdesk to check why I only have 2 unlocks left but was told that 2 is now ...

Re: Otoy Octane Black Friday 2024 bundle deal?

Just purchased the BF deal of a year's subscription.
Buried somewhere in the Otoy/Octane pages I read that for existing subscriptions (I had 6 months left) subscribers should contact support to not lose their current remaining subscription and have it added to the newly purchase BF deal. Can you ...

Re: Question about material conversion and octane proxies.

Hi Timmaigh!,
To better understand what you're referring to regarding the conversion, it would be helpful to review the original material.

Re: questions about recent licensing changes and other things

Thanks Beppe!

This is more or less what i needed to know.

Obviously, if i would be buying the GPU enclosure, i would do my due dilligence first to find out, whether my 3090 fits inside. Someone in my country on local reselling site is selling Lenovo Legion BoostStation for 200 EUROs, i was looking ...
