Hi,
I just installed the Octane 4 demo and added it to the plugins folder of C4d R20. I also removed all the necessary files and kept only *c4dOctane-R20-demo.xdl64*.
When I start C4D, it loads up and gets to 'initializing plugins' and then just disappears. There's no error message or anything.
I do currently have a Radeon HD5870 gpu installed - I am upgrading to nvidia. I was just downloading the demo so it's ready for me to use.
Is my GPU the reason this is happening? Will it work ok when I swap it out for an nvidia gpu?
I knew I couldn't actually use the renderer until I upgraded but I didn't expect it to completely stop C4D from opening.
Without Octane 4 in the plugins folder, C4D is fine so it's definitely this causing the problem.
If you can confirm that it's my current gpu causing this issue then I will remove and wait until my new gpu arrives.
Thank you!
