This is a stable version of OctaneRender for Carrara version 2.

This version requires Carrara 8.1/8.5 Pro (64bit). This version runs on 64-bit Windows 7, 8, 8.1, and 10. The .NET 4.5 Framework or higher is required.

- Added new Render Target settings dialog. This dialog is opened by selecting the Scene and clicking the Edit button under Octane Render Target. This dialog replaces the Render Target tab in the Octane Settings dialog.

Known Issues
- Carrara can crash when consolidating materials. (Edit->Remove Unused Masters->Consolidate Duplicate Shaders) The exact cause of this issue is still unknown as there is no reliable repeat case and I have not, myself, been able to reproduce this issue. If you can find a repeat case then I will reward you with great praise. It is highly recommended that you save you scene and close the ORVP before trying to consolidate.

For more information...
- Read the on-line manual.

Hi Simon,
I did a batch queue render of a file with a simple camera zoom which failed to zoom.
I attempted to recreate a simplified version of the file to test a separate batch render.
The test file does not render at all. Thanks for checking the attached.
Best regards,
Rick

Hi Simon,
I would be curious about experimenting with .vdb in 2.25. Is this something that could be backported?
Thanks,
Rick

Sorry, no. VDB support is an Octane 3.0 feature.

Hi Simon,
For some reason, not predictably, file type keeps unchecking on renders, from "single" to nothing, causing .exr output, but no .png frames.
Thanks,
Rick
