OTOY Forums

@ mib2berlin,
Thanks
I checked there as well, the only one showing 2.0 is my stand alone octane... not the octane-blender plugin


Cheers,
Tung

Octane was nominated for the CG Awards 2014 (the Oscars in 3D graphics) in the category of best software update of the year, see https://thecgawards.com/vote/software-update/

Congratz!

Hi,

My OctaneLive Account doesn't show the Octane 2.0 C4D plugin username and password even though I purchased the 2.0 upgrade when there was a free plugin voucher. Any help?

You need upgrade C4D plugin via shop (to buy, but don't pay - you have voucher, then in Account upgrade license to 2.0

I'm trying with the demo 2.0 , why you take out the option to whrite the numbers for change values in everything , specially for mapping ,it's difficult to match using slide bars...instead of writing the numbers for UV transform....I hope it's just for the DEMO version...if not please back to the 1.0 versions

Right click in the field to enter the value.

hi tremolo, the voucher doesn't show up on your customer area anymore because your c4d plugin has been upgraded to v2.x along with the standalone. hope that makes sense

Brilliant! I love your willingness. It takes humility to make these choices. God's blessings.

-> Make sure that you either disable the "use priority" option in the CUDA device settings or set the render priority to "high".

This will probably not make up all speed loss, but improve things. I also would like to note that we found one problem in the geometry compilation, which we are currently trying to fix. We found this problem with a scene Dom74 sent to us. -> If you have some scenes with dramatic speed losses, please send them to us. There is a chance that there are more issues hiding.

I downloaded the Demo ... seemed to run great on my 4,1 Mac Pro/Nvidia 6GB GTX 780 setup (Mavericks and latest Nvidia drivers) ... and it is a blast ... now I want to purchase.

When I go to the "Buy Now!" page it says:

OctaneRender™ for CINEMA 4D® 2.x is available for the following:
Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8: CINEMA 4D® R13,R14,R15

My question:

How do I buy this for OSX and C4D? From other posts (and the demo) it seems to be working ... just not sure if I should click "Buy" on something only saying Windows

EDIT: OK, I may be a little OCD about wording but didn't want to have to go through hoops to change licensing ... after a quick response I was told the purchase link worked for any platform and I was able to find links for OSX ... still trying to get C4D license to activate but standalone came up fine and activated.

Hi DigitalOven,

The shop page has been updated with the Mac compatibility. It is the correct product (our licenses are not limited to a specific OS).

Thanks
Chris.
