Hi there,
from a little time I am having problems every time I open a scene.
The plugin does not load and I am forced to create a new empty scene, then copy and paste the other scene to use octane. But once saved, when I open the problem occurs again and I have to repeat the same steps.

If I try to install another version of the plugin it always fails, but if I do it with an empty scene it does not give me problems.

What could be the cause?

Hi - the plugin should load when Rhino starts up. Have you tried starting Rhino (which should cause the plugin to load) and then loading your scene? Do not double-click your .3dm file, since Rhino does not load some plugins when you do this.

Ok, this way works. But until some time ago I could easily double-click the file and the plugin loaded successfully. Why this change?
Anyway, thank you very much Paul! :)

I'm not sure. And the McNeel forums appear to be down at the moment, but I will ask the Rhino devs when I can.
