This is the recommended thread for downloading, and posting any questions, suggestions or support queries for OctaneRender for ArchiCAD TEST and STABLE releases.

ArchiCAD Version
This version of the plugin runs on ArchiCAD 21, 22 and 23 - 64 bit Windows (Vista, 7, 8 and 10).

To use this version, you need a GPU of compute model 3.0 or higher. Support for Fermi GPUs (like GTX 4xx and 5xx) has been dropped. Also make sure you use a driver of version 417 or higher and if you are working on Mac OS that have a CUDA driver installed that supports at least CUDA 9.1.

Network Rendering
For Network Rendering, you must use the Octane slave release from the Octane Standalone installer which matches the exact Octane version of the plugin you are using. This version matches OctaneRender Standalone 4.00.

Support Issues
If you have a support issue, pls provide the following information:
- Operating System (ie. Win XP, Vista, 7, 8)
- 32 or 64 bit
- Amount of RAM
- Graphics Card(s) - model (ie. GTX 580, 3GB)
- Nvidia driver version
- ArchiCAD version (ArchiCAD -> Help -> License Information -> Version and Build Number
- OctaneRender for ArchiCAD version (ie. 1.02a)
- In the unlikely event of a crash, pls provide the dump report from the C:\Users\[username]\Graphisoft\BugReporting-[version] folder (on Win 7). Either post or email (to "paul at physicalc-software.com") the "ArchiCAD-XXXXXX-FATAL.RPT" file from this folder.

For more information

Once you save a .pla/.pln scene with this version of the plugin, you will no longer be able to open the OctaneRender plugin with this scene loaded when the Octane 4 or Octane 2018.1 version plugin installed.

Thanks Paul for athe addon.
Trying to test the upsampling. I do not know if there is something I am doing wrong but the result is worse as I am getting a lot of pixelation.

Any idea or this is normal?
Is there may be a pass that has to be activated?

Thanks

I don't know - sorry. I suggest exporting the scene to ORBX and then loading into Octane Standalone and if it happens there, report it to OTOY in the Octane Standalone 2019.1 thread.

Thanks

Hi Paul,

if you can do an 2019.1 RC5 build for the ArchiCAD build would be great, RC3 had some issues that made a mess out of a lot of my objects.
Those issues have been resolved looking at the objects in the RC5 standalone.

Cheers, Dan.

Hi Paul,

an ArchiCAD Build of the final 2019.1 release would be great when you get a chance.

Hi Dan. I have some internal changes to make on the plugins, so it will be about two weeks before the next release.

Hi Paul,

thanks for the update. Will we run into any issues with the 2109.1 RC5 build licence expiring in the next week?

Good question. I don't know. The ArchiCAD plugin should be out Monday or Tuesday.
