Octane Render for SketchUp 0.15.1

New builds of the Octane Render Plugin for SketchUp are now available:

Octane Render for SketchUp x64
Octane Render for SketchUp x64 (Demo)

This is a minor bug-fix update. The main change is a fix for an issue with the SketchUp extension menu that was causing some menu actions to fail for no obvious reason.

These will work with the Pro and free versions of SketchUp 2015 x64. Please note that, as explained in the previous release notes, we are no longer supporting 32-bit applications.

Great! Have to give it a shot at work tomorrow. Does this fix the weird proxy/*.ocr export problem from v.15?

Update: Proxies still do not export like they did in v.13. I'll post a video when I can to help explain what I'm seeing.

Hi I installed this version but noticed that when I am working with 2 SketchUp projects at the same time, and try to open the octane render plugin inside sketchup (start rendering) I receive a blank window, unless I close the other sketchup project the problem disappears. This really affects workflow, am I the only one that has this happening?

Thanks, and keep up the good job!

Thanks for the update Captain.

I still get the following issues:
1. Render viewport freezes. Seems to happen randomly but it *may* be related to material editing;
2. Octane material editor as erratic as ever - see images below.
2.1 Material editor blank
2.2 Reload material editor and then the whole Octane Materials window is blank
2.3 Reload scene and then the Live DB is there but not scene materials.

Best,
Seeker

A video would help make the problem clear. Also, would you be able to provide an example of a SU project that exhibits the problem?
