Hi All,

I use Octane Render with Cinema4D plugin on my PC, however I would love to be able to use Cinema4D on my Mac, and have the rendering take place on my PC.

Can I do that and still have a live preview? My Mac has an AMD graphics card, but I could throw a low-power Nvidia card into a thunderbolt enclosure to get something with CUDA on here if need be.

What additional licenses would I need to buy?

Phil.

Hi philletourneau,
for doing this right now, you need another Standalone license for net rendering with the PC and use your actual combo license with iMac equipped with one or more CUDA cards via Thunderbolt.
