This is new build with a stable version of 2019.1.2 SDK.
Any feedbacks are welcome for development and fixing the issues. Enjoy it!
This is the matching SDK for the 2019.1.2.
See all new features of 2018/2019 versions.
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 419.xx or higher and if you are working on Mac OS that has a CUDA driver installed that supports at least CUDA 9.1.
IN ANY CRASH CASE PLEASE DO THESE!!!
If you see CUDA errors follow 1,2,3,4.
1- Prefer NVIDIA STUDIO drivers. If you have stability issues try different drivers, some of them could cause instability issues. Do a clean install while doing this to be sure previous files completely removed.
2- Check GPU frequency. Overclocking would cause instability issues
3- Check PSU. Insufficient power output would cause instability issues
4- Check the free amount of GPU's VRAM and system's RAM while working. Low VRAM will/may cause CUDA errors. Be aware of some generator objects will have different triangle count in Picture Viewer than Live Viewer. It’s like “editor/render” parameter. Just try to use the same value. Also try to optimize your scene for polygon count, even use smaller images. Try to use Octane texture nodes rather than using C4D texture/shaders.
Alternatively, use V4 and Out-of-core(OOC) function. Increase RAM for OOC and It should not exceed physical RAM amount. Check TDR value and increase if it's necessary.
5- If you see C4D crashes without CUDA errors, then send us bugreport.zip, screen-shots and video capture to show process and crash moment. Also please send us a sample scene in a format of C4D or ORBX to let us investigate and test it. Alternatively, try to delete/hide some objects/materials until crash gone away. If you find what's causing crashes, send us a sample scene to let us for investigating and bring a fix or solution.
Thanks for helping the development by your feedbacks! It’s impossible to quickly catch every case without user feedbacks! It’s the same procedure as other companies do like Maxon/etc...
Changes of 2019.1.2-R2
- Added pick-focus support for Universal camera
- Invert option for VertexMap texture
- Minor fixes
Changes of 2019.1.2
- Universal camera and re-factored camera tag interface
- Minor fixes
Standalone(core) fixes
- Fixed toon material rendering incorrectly for camera toon light.
- Fixed toon material causing a render failure in the material preview.
- Fixed multi-layered material not outputting multi-layered bump mapped / mapped normals in info passes
- Fixed volume render inconsistency when using legacy mode.
- Fixed incorrect denoiser output when enablign some light passes.
- Fixed upsampler not working properly for the very first time on some GPUs (this does not fix the upsampler on Win 7, which is still an unsolved problem).
- Fixed kernel crash when using accurate rounded edges if adjacent geometry of an edge is a displacement triangle.
- Fixed discontinuities in shading normals for some cases when using fast rounded edges.
- Fixed a bug in the vertex normal calculation of vertex displacement geometry which was causing the geometry to look facetted when using the join unwelded vertices option.
- Fixed net render slave crash when a scene contains images compressed on the master.
- Updated the universal camera:
- All camera modes now conform to a unique set of pins.
- Added equirectangular and cubemap cameras.
- Added aberration, coma, field curvature, astigmatism and spherical aberration to the thin lens camera.
- Added keep-upright to all cameras.
- Added clipping and pixel aspect ratio to fisheye and panoramic cameras.
- Added lens shift to panoramic cameras.
- Fixed autofocus and focus picking.
- Fixed bokeh in fisheye camera for polygonal apertures.
Changes of 2019.1.1-R4
- Fix for a possible crash after specific steps: Render/Pause/Close_LV/select any Octane stuff
- Fix: "Aperture edge" parameter for universal camera
- Fix: dynamic pins for displacement mixer node
Changes of 2019.1.1-R3
- Keeping node attributes in localdb materials.
- Fix: Hang issue in quit phase after some specific operation
- Fix of some missing livedb material convert functionalites
- Small fixes for nodes
Changes of 2019.1.1-R2
- Missing transmission type in universal material
- Fix: (De)select all passes button
- Added: Motionblur support on splines with ObjectTag->Hair render
- Fix: update issue for R21 material previews due to changes of R21 SDK

Requirements:
-You'll need to update your Cinema 4D to latest versions(R16.050, R17.053, R18.057, R19.053, R20.057, R21.022). Otherwise, the plugin will not work and not appear in menus.
-Internet connection for activation, be sure that C4D and Octane will not be blocked by the firewall and any antivirus software.
-Updated Nvidia drivers at least Nvidia Studio Drivers(419.x/431.xx) and be careful with latest Game Ready drivers which can cause cuda errors. Avoids to use 418.81.
-Cuda 9.1 driver for OSX.

Installation
First, remove all octane related stuff from plugins and the main folder of Cinema4D.
Extract all files to Cinema4D\plugins\c4dOctane directory.
Also, download manual.zip and extract to c4dOctane directory if it's not available in place.
There are a few files for each one is for different Cinema4D version. Remove all except the file is for your version.
Ex. if you have Cinema4D R18.0, keep only "c4dOctane-r18.cdl64" and delete c4dOctane-r17.cdl64, c4dOctane-r16.cdl64, c4dOctane-r15.cdl64, etc..
