Does Octane crash when loading materials? And does it happen for specific materials?

Hi, I am experimenting with SSS, and I have noticed that when using a mix node to mix a glossy material and a diffuse material with Scattering medium, the render doesn't restart to refresh after modifying a setting in the medium parameters, until you move the amount slider of the mixer. Weird !

This may be because the diffuse material doesn't have transmission enabled. In this case the medium node doesn't have effect (no rays can enter the object) and it will be ignored.

Merid, this seems to be normal, happens to me too.
When you have a high resolution and you move the image with the sliders right and bottom (not the camera but the image) and then go back to a smaller resolution the image stays where it last was.
Simple solution: There is a small icon bottom left under the viewport, two red circles with two white arrows, 'Center Image' or something like this.
It does exactly this, centers the image in the viewport!

Hope this helps, even if it seems to be in the wrong thread... ;-)

Thanks Roeland, I will check that point !

There is a bug that causes a crash when loading the material "Rock with Lichen" and possibly some other materials, it will be fixed in the next release.
