Hi there,
hopefully somebody has an idea...
as i heard of a new version of Octane, which is now able to use AMD cards, i´ve updated my iMac to the latest version of Catalina ( 10.15.6 ) to try out Octane Demo.
I´m able to load simple test scenes, but i can´t start rendering. Under Preferences >> Devices, i can see my AMD Radeon Pro580x, but below the render viewport there is no render GPU signed. Do i need additional driver support or something ???
with kind regards
s.a.

Hi,
Radeon Pro 580x should not be supported for now, you need one of these cards:
  • Radeon VII - 200 OB
  • 5700 XT - 170 OB
  • Vega FE - ~161 OB
  • Vega 64 -~148 OB
  • Vega 56 - ~117 OB
  • Vega 48 - 108 OB
  • WX9100 - ~ nd
ciao Beppe

Have you updated to 10.15.6?
Please download and install Standalone OctaneX PR1 demo.

https://render.otoy.com/downloads/15/16 ... _macos.dmg


Then open Standalone demo, right click anywhere in the node graph panel, and choose Materials/Metallic, to create the material node.
Now right click on the node and choose Render.
Then please share a screenshot of the Standalone interface thanks.

Looking forward for your feedback,
