I have refreshed the installers at the top of this thread with:

2.23.1.47
- Fixed issue where loading scenes saved with plugin versions prior to 2.22.2.44 with proxies would sometimes report those proxies as having the OctaneProxy_AlwaysUseParameters GDL parameter set

Hi Paul,

I have just installed 2.23 on the slaves and master.
The standalone sees and works with the slaves, but the standalone does not even see any slaves in the OctaneRender Network Preferences.

Do you have any idea?

EDITED: Solved... do not why, but I had my Virsuscanner off (trial was over)... so I installed the one I had purchased (Panda 2014) and now the slaves are seen in the plugin as well. I had to restart the pC in between.
Do not why it did not and now does work. But it is solved.

Perhaps Firewall? I had some problems before. I have ESET, and the built-in firewall didn´t want the slaves. I had to open the ports manualy.

Hi,
A Bug comes always, if I select a hatch in 2D by opened Octane-Plugin.
It would be nice to let the plugin opened, if I have to adjust a hatch. I use hatches in floorplan to show the original size of the proxy untill I scripted the object. Thanks!

Hi,
(I guess it is a fill you are talking about

Yes, I can confirm and I have it too when a fill is selected in 2D and the go to 3d Archicad crashes when the plugin is open.

I was just uploading the next release....I will have a look at this issue and try to gt a fix for it in that release. Can you provide an exact sequence of steps I can take to reproduce the crash pls?

- Having the plugin and render window open:
- select a fill in the 2d Archicad window
- then go to 3d Archicad window (by F3 in windows)
- crash will happen

Try to open the attachment. It´s an empty plan with a hatch and three walls. Open the octane-plugin (you don´t need the viewport for the bug). If you are in 3D-window, than go back to the 2D floorplan. Try to select the hatch, at this point my AC flies away.
If it is possible, I would work further without closing the Octane-plugin, and waiting the long loading process again and again.

Thanks - it is a crash inside AC when the plugin tries to access the Fill. I will filter Fills out in the next release to resolve this problem.

I have refreshed the installers at the top of this thread with:

2.23.2.48
- Compiled with Octane 2.23.2
- The plugin now searches Orbx/ocs proxies for a Geometry Out node prior to searching for a Mesh node. If a Geometry Out node is found, it will be used to connect the proxy to the Octane scene. The Geometry Out node allows you to transform the Mesh node in the Orbx/Ocs file (with a Placement node)
- Added Scale Textures button for Material nodes to scale all the textures in the material at once
- Fixed crash when selecting a Fill with the plugin Setup window open

The Orbx and Scale Textures changes were more complex than expected, so pls keep the previous build installer handy in case any issue arise with this build.
