[Tried to post this question once, and it was rejected: "The reported message has the only purpose to advertise for a website or
another product." - Wow. No idea where that's coming from.]

I'm trying the demo plugin (3.04) for Maya (2016.5/2017) with Mac OS 10.11.6, Titan X GPU. IPR rendering appears to work, but any attempt to actually render a frame completely freezes Maya, requiring a force-quit.

I ran the Octane Bench, which worked fine with my GPU, scored as expected for a single Titan X.

Any help out there, or should I just bail on Octane as a possible renderer for my system?

Maybe you had no luck with the demo version you tried.
Here is the link for the demo of last Stable version :

Thanks, Calus,

Unfortunately that version performs exactly the same on my machine. IPR renders work, but actual rendering out to file freezes Maya, requiring force quit. Tried 2016 and 2016.5.

I think it might be primarily when using R16. I've not had an issue with the 340.xx in R15, but within 2 mins of installing and opening R16 it had crashed :)
