You need to be sure that the instanced object and the instancer are enabled in the scene and also you should check the instancing options in the render target root node option panel.

Thanks but....
1)i suppose that if instances can be rendered in LW vpr they are enabled in scene and can be rendered in IPR. Am i wrong?
2)i have checked all the instances option in the root etc.
So.. whats the matter?

Not sure. Can you send to me the scene to check it? ... you can email it to me to [email protected]

#1 is false: VPR will render instances even if the instanced object is hidden from view.
The version of Octane we have available to us at this time will not render hidden objects' instances.
