I'm having issues installing the Demo SketchUp plugin on my MacBook Pro. It's an older, mid 2012 laptop, but has NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1GB card. From the start of SketchUp the "Load Error" window comes up. Did I install Octane wrong?

Hi remismith,
did you install the Mac CUDA drivers?

Anyway, sorry to inform you that GTX 650M is a bit outdated and performs only ~11 in OctanBench:

We suggest at least 45.
Since the GPU is also used by system / monitor, you have very few power and memory for rendering, and even a simple scene could be an issue.
ciao beppe
