Hello,
My problem is ,as said in the title, that the Blender Octane plugin doesn't detect my GPUs. In the user preferences I have nocomputing devices excet the CPU. But in Octane Standalone Edition 2.23 my dual SLI of GTX 780ti is correctly detected and used so it mean that this is a Blender Octane plugin issue. My system is Windows 10 pro 64bit, last Nvidia driver (353.62), I've checked if by disabling SLI it could work but it changed nothing. Any idea of what I should do to fix it?
Thanks for your help,

Hi Mozarte3D, setting in UPrefs are only for Cycles and Cycles is deactivated in Blender for Octane.
Simply start Octane Server, then start render in Blender.
First time you have to add User/Pass for Blender for Octane.

I followed your instructions but when I try to activate my licences on Blender the Octane Server shutdown and the render cannot be done. I launched the server again, then Blender, I checked on my Octane account and my licences are correctly activated, but I still don't have GPUs when rendering a scene.

Hi, what do you mean with "I don´t have GPU", can you render or not. :)
You cant see Octane GPU in Blender User preferences.

Judging by the third image you seem to be rendering okay?

Fourth image it shows you trying to select your GPUs via Blender's user preferences but OctaneBleder is different. You select your GPUs from the Render panel. Fourth image shows one GPU is selected, so select the next box as well.
