Unfortunately I am crashing again as well after reinstalling per my previous post. It seems to only happen if I close the Live Viewer window, then I get the spinning beach ball and have to force quit. Going back to the Nov 25 build one more time to see if I have any better luck.

What happens if you add the Live View window to a custom C4D layout and save it?
Can you change layout without the spinning beach ball?

Hi,

I uploaded another video. The example shows how the same scene works in two versions of octane and two versions of cinema.

In R23, closing the Live Viewer window does not crash the program and you can continue working. But denoise and Vdb Volume don't work in this version. If I set the animation with the checkbox enabled (Denoise on competition), then the rendering of the first frame will never end.
In 2023 versions (denoise and Vdb Volume) work fine, but when you close the c4d window just stops responding.
Also if you look at the video you can see different white balance. There is also such a moment when I close all the scenes, then after a while c4b simply stops responding and I have to forcibly close the program. If I remove the octane, then nothing like this happens. Is it possible to get an intelligible answer when there will be a stable version of the plugin?

Ok, I was not able to reproduce the issue on M1 here, c4doctanex 2022.1-R3 is rock solid in C4D 2023.1.3 under macOS 13 Ventura:


So, I have installed Monterey on another partition, and I can confirm the same behavior with C4D 2023.1 and c4doctanex 2022.1, if you close Live View window, C4D freeze. and you need to force quit!
Updating C4D to 2023.1.3, and c4doctanex to 2022.1-R3 don't help, unfortunately :(
But if you go back to C4D R25 or 26, there is no issues in closing Live View!

To recap:
  • if you are already under macOS 13 Ventura with M1/2, c4doctanex 2022.1 works with no issues in C4D R2023, or 25 or 26.
  • if you are still under macOS 12 Monterey with M1/M2, please use C4D R25 or 26 with c4doctanex 2022.1, and avoid to use C4D 2023

With Octane X now on iPad (wow!) can we now setup something like this: Using Octane X plug-in on a m1/2 Mac and having a m1/2 iPad run Octane X in super user mode & operate as a network slave for the Mac?

hi.

anyone know how to log out of the terminal app for the render node for Mac . I have just swapped over from Mac enterprise to Studio+ and my cinema 4d r25 is not seeing network options now. Was all ok before. Reinstalled pr14 render node...and it seems to be automatically logging in. But in my subscriptions its is say "unknow" and "cool down 30 mins" I think it might be a case I am not logged in to render node correctly in the terminal.
I have unstalled and reinstalled the render node on the second Mac numerous times etc.... but no option to log in?
cheers

Hi James,

one of the features of the upcoming new 2023.1 SDK is the Headless rendering feature.
In practice, it will be possible to add a Mac or PC via LAN as if it were an eGPU - connected to M1/M2 Mac or iPad Pro M1/M2 as primary workstation.

Stay tuned...

ciao,
Beppe

Fine.
I installed Mac Os Ventura 13.1+Cinema 4D 2023.1.3+Octane 2022.1-[R3]
I tested the plugin before the new year and on the old and new scenes. Everything worked fine and the plugin worked stably for several hours...
It's time to get back to work and the same thing happens again. Every time you close the LV window, c4d freezes and you have to force quit the program. Closed the project, close c4b and the program stops responding. Exit - only forced reboot.

Really good news for iPad Pro users... but for Mac OS users, will they ever come??
