I've installed Octane at work but it won't show up in the System > Kit Toggle Enable, nor in the tab menu on the top.
Any clues what might've gone wrong? It's a bit of hassle to ping the IT department to sign in as admin every time something breaks and possibly need to be re-installed, so if we could pin point the problem before I do that, it would be great!

Hi - the plugin will install into the folder which you can find in Modo->System->Open Configs Folder. There should be an OctaneRenderForModo901 folder in there - is that the case? If not - when you run the installer you need to be logged into the Windows account which you are running Modo under.

Right... So my user have limited access. When I start the install file, I'm promted with a "sign in as admin" box, and the IT guy type in the domain admin user credentials. So that means: Octane for Modo is installed in the domain user account?

Probably. You should be able to copy it directly from the admin user account to yours. The plugin just needs to be installed in the Modo->System->Open Configs Folder folder with all your other plugins. https://docs.otoy.com/manuals/products/ ... tallation/ has additional details.
