My scene becomes extremely slow when changing camera when I use displacement. If I switch between different camera's I have to wait over minute before it start rendering, in the left hand corner is says 'ai scene'.
I have the feeling it calculates the displacement every time I adjust something in de scene even if it has nothing to do with the vertex displacement.

It indeed sounds like it recalculates vertex displacement offsets. I just tried it in a simple scene and there it doesn't do it, which means that it's specific to your scene.
-> Could you send me the scene or parts of it so we can investigate? Thank you.

I just send an email to Marcus (that is you right?)

If I use the matrial picker I often use the 'show graph in editor' so I can frame my shader (see screen shot).
Only if I do that in 2021 I am directed inside of the ABC node.

Thank you for the report. It will be fixed in 2021.1.1.

I'm having issues with the Enterprise Network Render Node 2021.1. Octane standalone runs and authenticates fine, I install the Render Node, and the "Install Octane 2021.1 Daemon", everything seems to install fine, then when launching the Daemon, the CMD dialogue will briefly open and then crashes. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling, I have GPU drivers 472.84, I have this happening to multiple computers, ranging from 2080tis, to 1080s. I'm out of ideas to try.

It is the first time I hear of that type of problem. It's probably best to get in touch with the support so they can investigate. Thank you.

It looks like it's something with the latest drivers. I rolled back to 472.12 and the Daemon is working again.

The region render is not working for me (also in previous versions). If I drag a region and I tweak a shader my whole images is refreshed (instead only my region).
