Why restart after render failure Tweet

[mikeadamwood]

This has bugged me for years but thought I'd ask why in here,

After a render failure, why am I forced to close C4D and reopen it for Octane to work again. Of course sometimes the entire program crashes as a result but 50% of the time Cinema4d remains responsive, it's just a render failure in the octane window.

It's really annoying because sometimes I have alot of scene elements open in different tabs, assets etc..It's such an inconvenience having to close my entire session to then have to open again. If this happens several times a day it's very frustrating!

Why isn't there just a way to restart Octane within C4D to avoid having to close/open the ENTIRE program.
