OctaneRender® for Poser (Mac OS X) 2.24.2 [TEST]

[Victor2112]

Today I had Poser crash when I went to close the Octane Plug in.

I had loaded the following items:
DAZ3D Store: Victoria 4 figure and Allura Hair
RuntimDNA: Demishkrah, Soul Warrior (clothes and weapons/shield/rope)

I opened the Octane Render then the viewport just to see how the hair would look on the figure. I went to close the Octane Plugin when Poser crashed.

I attached the crash log in hopes that it might help.

Thanks Victor - that's the exact same crash as previously. I keep reporting this to Smith Micro - but they cannot reproduce it, so very hard for them to address it.

Does it possibly only happen with DSON figures loaded?

Does it ever happen on small scenes (where the Material tab tree does not have a scrollbar).

Thanks

Sorry for the late reply. Been pretty busy.

I just recently had a crash while having the Millennium Falcon from sharecg.com loaded. I had the Viewport open and was panning the camera around the ship when it all of a sudden crashed.

I do believe it has happened on a small scene. I will test that again to be sure.

I was thinking that maybe I have some bad memory sectors but then I do not have other programs crashing at random times. However, if you know of a good memory tester for Mac, I can install it and see what happens.

It just happened again with the Falcon being the only object loaded. I was using the open viewport and the material picker to pick the engine when Poser crashed. I can post the crash report if needed.

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

2.23.2.54
- Changing the linked dial combo box now instantly refreshes the Viewport

2.23.2.53
- Fixed issue where selecting a material in the Poser Material room was multi-selecting in the plugin Materials tab
- Added the ability to link Greyscale Color and Float Value nodes to a Dial belonging to the Figure Body or Prop, for animation purposes. This does not save to the Poser Material (when you "Save Octane Nodes to Poser Material"). Copy and Paste nodes will paste the link, but exported, imported, etc will not transfer the dial links

2.23.2.52
- Fixed issue where changing a node type was changing the tree scrollbar position

2.23.2.51
- Fixed python exception raised when clicking the Resolution Lock button

2.23.2.50
- Fixed issue introduced in 2.23.2.49 that resulted in Material Picking not working

2.23.2.49
- Compiled with Octane 2.23.2
- Added Multiple Selection support (using shift click, or right click) to the Material tab tree. This allows you to paste a previously copied material to multiple selected materials. This only works if you have only selected Material nodes.
- Added multiple material selection option to convert all selected materials to diffuse
- Added additional debug info to octaneplugin.log

2.23.1.48
- Compiled with Octane 2.23.1 - so Kernel->Keep Environment is back
- Added Animation output save format "EXR All Passes" - to save all the render layers in separate layers in the EXR file for each frame
- Added addition error checking when processing missing texturemaps to prevent unicode encoding exceptions.
- Fixed Octane error occuring when starting to render an animation with the Viewport already open.

2.23.0.47
- Added OctaneVR trial license management functions
- Moved release number to the OctaneLive Account tab

Ah, no - sorry. That's Windows only. I will remove that comment above.
