Any Idea where my Render Pass tab has gone?

It was there yesterday I swear, but now I upgraded to 2.25 R2, and then downgraded back to 2,24,2 but in both cases my Render Passes tab has disappeared?

(C4D) Render Settings -> Octane Render -> Render Passes tab?

Hi, the render settings is there, just not in the octane settings dialogue which lets me preview the passes - its very odd

That's wrong! You can see as in Live Viewer as previous system. You need to set "enabled" and select any passes. Didn't you checked like that?

Now I think I understand - as Aoktar said, choose the Chn: in the LV window. In the Octane Settings the Kernel tab changes to "Infochannels", there you find your settings.

Not sorry. You should select from Octane Render Settings->Passes->Enabled. And select any pass in this section as doing output settings. LV will show all active passes as buttons in LV's bottom area.

Just enable Z-Depth in the Render Settings, then switch to the Kernel tab in the Octane Settings and choose Infochannels as kernel.

Why i couldn't explain it well? I have simplified the usage of passes just from single section in render settings. To avoid conflicts due having same controls in two different sections.
