So, I wanted to post in the licenced forum but it refused to let me, So uh not sure why that is. Regardless I've been trying to make TurbulenceFD work with octane v4 (I couldn't get it to work on v4.1 or v3 either). By not work I mean it does not show up in the live viewer or render, No matter what I do.. it just refuses to show up in the live viewer. I have exhausted every tutorial and info I could find online in over a week so finally, I'm here to ask for help.

Several of the things I've tried already are;
Adding an octane object tag to the container and setting it to voxel.
Making sure all the emitter values are correct.
caching multiple simulations.

And many more, I have a gif of my current test scene here: https://i.imgur.com/JDB0b8R.gifv if that'll help at all. But yeah really have no clue why this doesn't work. Kinda at my wit's end as I'd really love for this to work for me, Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you.

Hi, bepeg4d,
Not a single scene worked on the link that was previously downloaded. Nothing is displayed on the rendering.
If necessary, I can send screenshots.
Cinema 4d, Octane Render v4.01.1 -R2, TFD 1439. I would be happy for any help, thanks!

Hi,
maybe it is not your case, but please note that TFD works only with commercial license, student and demo version do not work with external renderer, like OctaneRender.
