Because Otoy underestimates SU's reach and importance. It's a pet project for them.

The SU community needs a dedicated and competent developer on the job.

Completely agree. Feel like we've been guinea pigs on this project. At the moment the only way I can competently use Octane for SketchUp is... creating proxies with v2014, and rendering with v2015. Stupid workflow, limited tools. But works for now.

Thanks Goldorak.

Incidentally, while some have found workarounds, I find the 2015 plugin very unstable with frequent crashes. The material management is also still buggy. A few of us offered to beta test again when you got Captain on board but there was no beta program. I think there is no way to develop a solid product without proper beta testing - even if it's open to all as RC versions. We're all keen to see a solid prduct and will do what it takes to pinpoint bugs. But your dev has to be up to the task. Fuzzy was a machine. So is Paul.

Will be watching in anticipation.
