This is very quick test/preview release of plugin which is based on V4-XB2 SDK. We recommend that you mention that it is experimental, they should not use it for production work, and that we cannot guarantee backward compatibility.
Please see this thread for V4 features: viewtopic.php?f=33&t=66013
Important notes:
Since XB2 Preview, we have dropped support for Fermi cards.
Network render is still disabled.
Denoiser does not denoise volumes or hairs yet.
Denoiser is under Camera Imager from Settings or Camera Tags. Just denoised beauty pass is available in plugin, others will be added.
Addons for plugin side
- Viewport rendering: Activate from Live Viewer/Octane dialog options menu. Keep open the one of these windows during the render session.
- Node Editor: Experimental float sliders on nodes. Need to activate from "settings->nodes->embedded gui".
- Node Editor: Show/hide options for node pins.
- New help system, updated manual(it's still wip). Access by help icons from nodes/etc..
- Several minor fixes.
