- The 1.x->2.x upgrade for standalone will be 99€ when 2.0 is released
- The above price also includes updating a previously purchased OTOY 1st party plug-in (Maya, Max, Blender...) from 1.x->2.0 as well
- 3rd party devs may set their own price for upgrading plug-ins from 1.x->2.x.
Can users purchase the upgrade in advance to be beta testers for the 2.0 release?

2.0 looks cool, especially edge shader and MB, but what's about dynamic booleans support? It's only a thing, that stop me to make an animation renders in Octane. Pleeease!!!

I've been hard on the devs lately but I must admit to get 2.0 + 1 plugin update for 99 euros does make up for many of their mistakes ;) Just hope C4D is included

I don't mind paying for the plugin if they atleast include network render capability to 3 render nodes per octane set.
If they say to pay for octane stand alone, octane plugin then each render node needs each set then I'll just go back to unlimited rendernodes on lw and modo.

I think everything with a student license option is 1st party?

Hi!
What users want is a feedback to the developers. This is the most important things!
So, we are reassured that the company (otoy) is on our side and not abandon us.
Well done, otoy! Thank you!

About network...
Does it means that I can work on my Mac and render on a pc over the network?
I think so. Now, what I have to buy? A pc license of standalone?

Thank you
