"backward compatibility" - most likely this information was on FB JU (I do not remember exactly)
You assume that problems with loading the scene will not. Will only the new features of the updated version of the plugin be unavailable?
I am ready to pay an annual subscription, but the user should have the current full working version.
like this done in RS/cycles4d.
In Octane, you roll back a lot.
very sad
Trying to understand your point. Do you wish that all team of company work without income? You can still use V4 without paying anything forever. This is my opinion.
And asking or criticizing the company policy to plugin developers or support guys that will not make any sense. We don't decide how things work.
Also I don't understand what you say about backward compatibility! Please give some example of what kind of hardness you have.
You do not understand me.
let's say you paid 2-3 years annual subscription. and you had a "full" octane V10
what happens when the octane subscription period ends and for various reasons you cannot temporarily pay further?
the user does not have a perpetual license for V10.
he will only have v4.
In other renderers (RS / Cycles4d), you still have the
perpetual license of the version on which the paid service stoppedagain

but the user should have the current full working version.I'm not saying that you came up with this licensing system.
I say that it is at least
strange.
