Just want to give some positive feedback and courage to the team for trying so hard, u're doing great guys! I loaded an old scene to the pre-2.3 release, as wells as heavier 500MB scenes, loaded ok, voxelised ok, rendered ok, saved ok! :D
Win 7 64bit, 64 bit octane version, GTX275 and (i think) 258.96 drivers.

Pathtracing, i know fireflies are there but i'll happily wait for MLT, also you can't expect a single light source to light up a whole room without looking like the sun! hehe

So far so good for me: I've been able to save both of the scenes I rendered without problems. I'm using the latest drivers for the 470 and 580.

I still get mesh-related crashes, but I think they are due to my crappy modeling :cry:

Unfortunately a second emitter isn't working for me either, but at least the tv screen still shows up

This one was baking for 1hr @ 4000 samples. 0.56MSamples/sec

I was just told to save and reload the scene to get other emitters working (it works)

Yes i read that too almost at the same time (not quite easy reading that many posts about the new stuff!) and i confirm it, after saving and loading the scene again all the assigned emitter materials work 8-)
