Hi,

I've just updated my octane plugin to 2.16.0 (windows) with lw 2015.1 and I'm getting a constant flickering in the IPR window.

I've updated my GPU drivers to the latest but I still have the flickering.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I should also note that I've using windows 8.1 and octane for a while (build 2.13.2) without any issues.

It's since updating to 2.16.0 that I have the issue with IPR.

Just tested the Beta build and the flickering IPR is no longer an issue with a simple scene containing a ground plane and sphere. Loaded a more complex scene with 373 objects and only 55mb of textures and the flicker IPR is there.

as for me I tested with different size preset from the IPR window and preset by default makes only one flickering and after no problem
as for the other modes : custom or size defined video format, example : 1024x768 there is this problem...
Perhaps this will help :)

Please, can you test this new build of the 2.21 plugin? It is for LW 2015 Windows x64. You need to install the last beta plugin (2.21.1) and replace the plugin .p file. At least in my system it is working fine now.

Ok I tried replacing the plugin and it fixed the flickering issue :) Many thanks.

The IPR info text flickers and will sometime disappear completely for a good few seconds though.

Thanks
