The first thing I did was try to switch texture environment floattexture to image, and got an error message that I didn't record. So I left that alone and just tried to move the camera (with the render window open), and got this message in a window titled "delete lights":

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012\Runtime\Python\addons\OctaneRender for Poser\OctanePlugin.py", line 10465, in poserEvent
File "C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012\Runtime\Python\addons\OctaneRender for Poser\OctanePlugin.py", line 8912, in setOctaneCameraInfo
WindowsError: exception: access violation reading 0x000000000000001C

I am pretty sure this is a ramification of the "texture environment" bug, which was fixed with the last update (which is not working for some ppl.

I am uploading a fix right now.

Seems stable... been using it for a couple of renders in both environments.

I just put a small patch through. Keep a copy of your old installer just in case. Download the new patch from the link at the top of this thread.

1.13u-2
-------
- Fixed issue where plugin could not be activated if Octane Standalone was not activated
- Change account authorisation to be when the plugin is first run for a session, rather than when Poser first starts up
- Added "Show node Graph" to display the node graph for the selected tree item. Added for testing purposes only. Highly experimental - use at your own risk. Clicking "Unfold" on a big scene will potentially hang Poser.
- Added "Show Log" button to the Cuda tab to display cuda diagnostic info
- Changed underlying architecture to be more closely aligned to the forthcoming Mac version of the plugin
- Render priority is now saved between sessions
- For specular materials, "fake_shadows" defaults to Enabled

There was a cosmetic issue with the last version where the tree was not being restored after changing the node type. I have just re-uploaded 1.13u-2 to rectify this issue. I also removed the Mac installer for the moment to save download size.

I also have a report that this version has an issue with emitters which use opacity maps. I have escalated this to Otoy.

I have investigated this further, and the version of Octane this latest version of the plugin has been compiled against has a problem with transmapped materials. So hair is not rendering correctly :-\ So pls hold off downloading and installing this version until I get a fix out.

Apologies for the glitch.

Quick update - Otoy have confirmed the issue with transmapped materials, and I hope to have a fix out in the next 1-2 days.
