I just purchased Octane standalone and C4d plugin. Standalone is activated but the plugin gives me a error message "can't connect to the server". Any suggestions?

It may be a server connection problem or blocking by a firewall . What's your versions of plugin and standalone?

hmm, what's the collision? Did not you deleted the unnecessary versions of plugin after unpack the package? It describes in readme.txt.

This is a error because of failed registeration of plugin. Are you giving correct userId(7500xxxxx) on plugin account section?

Yes, of course. Im using same user id and password as I was given in my account. Maybe something went wrong on your side and you should resend me correct login details.
