The world's fastest and most feature-rich unbiased render engine that integrates completely into Autodesk® Maya®.

Maya® Version Requirements

This release will work with Maya® Versions 2016.5, 2017, 2018 and 2019 64-bit on Windows, Linux and OSX operating systems.

To use this version, you need a GPU of compute model 3.0 or higher. Support for Fermi GPUs (like GTX 4xx and 5xx) has been dropped. Also make sure you use a driver of version 419.17 or higher and if you are working on Mac OS that have a CUDA driver installed that supports at least CUDA 9.1.


Changelog and the installers for Octane Standalone are here:
OctaneRender Standalone 2018.1.2


Changes since version 14.28:

• Few optimizations in the scene translation processing: this should fix some issues with refresh of temporary (not keyed) current-frame values of animated attributes that don't match the current animation-calculated value.

• Few optimizations in the scene translation processing: this should fix some issues with refresh of temporary (not keyed) current-frame values of animated attributes that don't match the current animation-calculated value.

Sadly this didn't fix a similar/worst issue with animated attributes of OSL textures :

Steps to reproduce the BUG:
- apply to an object in the scene a material using whatever OSL texture in the diffuse component.
- add keyframes animation to one of the OSL dynamic attributes, producing visible change.
- render in IPR or VR at different time to compare > the OSL texture is not refreshed / ignore the animated attribute, even when restarting render. (batch render is ok)


Usually to workaround this bug I need to connect for example the translate X of an animated locator in the OSl node attribute (instead of keying directly the attribute),
but well it's really not handy...
