hi aoktar… in the FAQ you write :

Q: I'm getting some Render Failure warnings and render is breaked on Picture Viewer. But this scene works on Live Viewer.
A: Please check your objects. Some objects as Hypernurbs which can produce different amount faces on Picture Viewer rendering.

could you explain this a bit further? i still get a lot of failures on mac
this is due to certain objects? can yout tell which exactly?

i think mac guys have more pain for that.
Render failure, what's that? It's a one kind of error which's produced by Cuda so it's Octane Core. There is no very spesific explanations. But you should check what write down in log window of Octane. You may see some lines which starts as Cuda Error ......
Ok, what causes this?
Something exceeds the limits of gpu. Mostly vram of gpu. Textures can consume much ram then you expected. Also if you have only one gpu, Octane have to share available vram of gpu with System resources.

You should check free vram amount from Live Viewer. If you see it's low, very low as 100mb. You are near to a render failure.
I hope this is explanatory for you

dont think its the memory or textures…
i have a file with 2 cameras in a room pointing in opposite directions,
one always gives renderfailures, the other renders fine.
so i thought it might be really caused by an object, as you mentioned it in the faq…
i'm trying to eliminate non-mesh-objects now…

ps.
i get a lot of them in this render and i dont really know why.
is there a guide about hotpixels/fireflies somewhere?
what is causing them?

pps.
just noticed that the environment tag still works even if the sky object is turned off (2 red buttons)
you need to delete it completely to have it off ! is that a correct behaviour…?

Hi Ahmed,

if I click the restart render button while C4D is rendering in image viewer the whole system is going down until the render is done. Maybe you can add a kind of 'wait until render end' function before the live viewer tries to do at the same time.

Regards

we have protection for that, you can click but does nothing. How could you succesed to overcome?

just purchased and installed 2.02, when I click on DB in octane dialog c4d crashes?

You mean how could I get into this? I accidently clicked the refresh button ...

Or do you mean how I came out of the freeze? First I killed the C4D process, later I waited if something happens and yes - suddenly it was fine again, after the render job in image viewer was done.

I can render in the viewport and Render picture window and Octane does fine.
But nothing in the live viewer and I am only getting 2 frames out of the 250 in the picture viewer.

Does this log help troubleshoot that at all.

Thanks

Peter

Thanks for this new update Aoktar!

[dinf]

Thank you for still working on it and updating Ahmet!

Displacement does not work neither with c4d shaders nor textures when they are in Mix Material or in Mix Shader, pure shader/texture only. Is that the way it shall work right now or is it an issue of my machine?
