Many congratulations on the public release of your Octane Render plugin for Carrara Sighman :)

The news that MANY have been waiting for...

Its been an amazing time helping Sighman in closed testing with some really fantastic (& highly talented) people and I am proud to have been involved from the start. I must say that Simon worked very quick on getting a stable version out that is feature rich and testing it has been amazing. It was an extreme honor to work with some great names that many of you know such as Tugpsx, 3Dage, PhilW, DustRider and of course the developer himself, Sighman. I am pretty confident that you are going to see some AWESOME images & animations hitting your screens real soon and I cant put in to words how much this amazing plugin will change the work flow for Carrara users all over the world.

A BiG thank you to Otoy & Sighman for having me on the team, Sighman has done such a fantastic job of this plugin that you can literally get stuck in right away. With such seamless integration Carrara users new and old will find their work flow enhanced and enriched beyond expectation.

What are you waiting for? Go check it out...

Put your hand in your pocket and get some OCTANE ;)

Congratulations to Sighman on developing this, I know that it will be huge news for many Carrara users, you should feel justly proud of what you have done. And thanks to all the other closed beta testers - Orion_UK, Tugpsx, 3Dage & DustRider - for the mutual support and fanstastic renders! I am sure that many of these will see the light of day over the next few days and weeks to wow Carrara users worldwide. It has been a blast to be involved.

The installer assumes you have installed Carrara to the standard location "C:\Program Files\DAZ 3D\Carrara8.5". If this is not the location where you have installed Carrara you need to modify the install path in the installer. You will need to uninstall and install again.

I know, the installer asked for the location and I gave the right place (R:\DAZ\Carrara8.5 in my case).

Can you check to see if they ended up in program files anyway...

Found the Extensen where you told me and copied them manually. Thanks for the hint!

Hi,

Manually copying the files from the 8.5 folder to the 8.1 folder got me going as well thank you.

However just to highlight an install bug, I still use 8.1 (and many people do) - when I select the 8.1 folder, it still installed to 8.5.
