Material preview doesn't work

[alexmunteanu]

Hi,
it seems I have a problem with viewing my octane materials.
They all look like a 100% transparent material with an ior of 1.
Does anyone know anything about this? Is it my video driver or something like that?

Thanks,
Alex

Live viewer is open? Sometimes need to send the scene to the Live viewer

[alexmunteanu]

Yes. With the live view open all the materials are shown correctly.
Thank you!
Will this be fixed in future releases?

Hi!
I just found the same problem with the materials but now on a quadro fx 5800 and this time I can't get it to work.
The materials are shown as a white plane even if I have the Live Viewer open...

And PMC doesn't work... "OCTANE API ERROR: PMC kerner: Unsupported compute model (13)"
