Just tested 31.8. It did not fix that issue for me on OSX.

I have tested the High Displacement Setting on OSX 31.7 Blender Addon. PBR Textures work but with a noise as texture input it is super unreliable. It freezes quite reproducably after a few seconds.

I have created a very simple scene. Lowering the 3D Transform Scale to 0.001 pushes it quickly over ...

Hi Lino,

I am testing OctaneBlender Addon 2026.2 - 31.6 Beta Release right now and it felt much more stable right off the bat.

i will keep on testing and will report in a couple of days.

Thank you

128GB unified Memory M4 Max.

Could you please send me an upload link because the 16k Textures are pretty big.

The high displacement on 31.6 is still quite buggy on Mac OSX. The viewport freezes a lot especially with 16k textures. You constantly have to toogle render mode on and off in the viewport to make the render active again.

Any help appreciated.

Thank you

2026.1 addon Beta 2

The Network rendering is working perfectly fine. I could not find any bugs in the Network Rendering on Blender Addon on OSX with Windows Render Node.

Is there a 2026.1 Render node available for download to test the network rendering ?

The longterm safest bet is Cycles but up to now I don´t get comparable results. Maybe my lack of Cycles experience.

Either go for Cycles or accept the reality of the Otoy Universe with all the ups and downs.

This release is really disappointing on OSX in terms of stability. This is such a buggy version not even worth the release or the Name Beta.
