Hi - sorry you are having these issues. I haven't had any other reports of this with the latest TEST release, so I believe you are the only user experiencing this issue. What NVidia driver version are you running pls? Does Octane Standalone work for you? What was the last version of the plugin that did work for you?

Thanks

Legend - thanks for bringing up the nvidia driver - that did it - all nighter ahead to catch up but at least I'll have octane under my belt!

turned out I had too many vertices?!!

Have to revert to built in rendering engine - I thought this was set higher recently? Is it configurable in the current plugin?

I don't see how the number of vertices in the scene would effect the ability for AC to load the Octane addon. Are you able to do a test pls....start AC, load a blank scene, does the Octane plugin get loaded? Restart AC and load your large scene, does the Octane plugin get loaded?

Also - what graphics card are you running pls? How much VRAM does it have?

Thanks
