Object not showing up in renders Tweet

Hi! First time posting so bear with me in case I post incorrectly!


Using OctaneVR with Cinema 4d R17

I'm having an issue with one object not showing up in both my live viewer and the renders.

A little backstory:
I've determined this is most likely an Octane issue because there's nothing in the scene that would be causing this. No red dots or anything. I recently had to uninstall octane and reinstall it just to reset it after I cleared a bunch of stuff off of my computer that was causing it to crash and not work at all. When I reinstalled it it was running fine. This object even showed up. Next render I realized this object suddenly stopped showing up though the only thing I had adjusted were the max samples. I lowered them from 2048 to 10 just so it ran smoother. I restarted my computer, even opened up a previous save and same thing is happening with the same object. I troublshot by rendering with Physical and the object showed up. So I'm thinking it's Octane.

Any ideas why it would do this? Should I upload my scene here?

Which object?

Maybe I misspoke? It's the gargoyle model in the image I attached. In the image is a comparison of the scene and the octane live viewer.

so i zoomed far out and crazy things are happening! In the image you can see in the live viewer a mass that isn't in the scene. That glitchy mass looks like a jumbled up mess of the texture that's on the missing object. In the scene you can still see the gargoyle head in the very center of the scene.

Have you tested with "Standard" renderer?

I feel silly it was a simple noob solution. I had brought the head in from a different scene so I brought up that scene again and copy pasted into this one. That one showed up and I converted the textures again to octane textures and everything is fine.Although I have to animate again. I guess the object had just glitched and needed to be refreshed in a way. Thank you for your time and replies.
