OctaneRender™ for Cinema 4D released

[miohn]

Hi,

the pictures are in wrong order.
Tex_1.jpg was the starting with adding a plane.
The top picture Tex_4.jpg shows when the ground texture dissappears.

o.k. the light tag was false here - but same result with the daylight tag.

The ground texture is gone!

Also, when I quit C4D I get 4 errors
crash_1 to crash_4

Do you have an idear, whats happening?

thanks
Mike

what is your gpu config and which driver?
did you try with different textures same scene?

[miohn]

this is happening since I got the plugin the first day of release.
And now also with Version 0.3.4.
I got a GTX 580 with Win 7 64 and 28 Gig Ram.
Today I updated the NVidia Driver to newest Version, but same problem.

When opening the test-scenes, everything seems to work at first look.
When starting from scratch, after applying the second or third imagetexture
to the scene, they begin disappearing.

Tomorrow I'll try again with removing all other plugins.
Maybe another plugin is causing that problem.

so long!

Nobody reported a error like that. after the giving 2-3 texture, save then reopen and try. Also i want to check your scene.

It has to do with having no "oct.dat" file in your "c4dOctane" plugin folder. Create an empty text file "untitled.txt" and rename it to "oct.dat" and place it in that folder. It should be able to activate after that file is in place.

Ahmet, I've told you about this issue before in the beta forums...

[aoktar]

@ goumz: folder of this file has changed. From now on it's in c4d prefs folder

hi all, thanks for this healthy interaction.

We'd like to commend all our developers for doing a great job. As the public beta phase continues, there will be succeeding releases of the integrated plugins.

Your feedback are well noted. Comments about this initial release are welcome here and we'd like to inform everyone that a sub-forum to continue the public beta phase of the integrated c4d plugin is located under the Plugin Discussion/Support forum, check this link:
http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=29778

For those who are looking for the help files, initially aoktar had this prepared http://www.aoktar.com/software/c4dOctane/c4doctane.pdf prior to the official documentation.
Here are also some sample scenes: http://www.aoktar.com/software/c4dOctan ... scenes.rar

The online manual for this plugin is also a work in progress:

I'm going crazy because of this!
Does others have this problem too?

are u clicking refresh on the live viewer from time to time?

[miohn]

Hi indexofrefraction,

yes, of course, I always click on the "refresh"
when changing geometry or anything else which does not auto-refresh.

Trying now without all other plugins and see if I can
exclude one possible reason.

But I'm wondering, thats only me having this special problem.


regards
Mike
