If yes, you need to disable it, since it does not work with PMC, so the render never stops... or switch to Path Tracing, with AI Denoiser active.

ciao Beppe

Same Problem, with Pathtrace, rendering Tif/TGA Sequences, 4000 frames, AI Denise turned on. Render stucks after 100-200 rendered Images (halt, crash). Its not possible to render it professionally til end of sequence. All on MacPro 2019, 2 x AMD Radeon Pro Vega II Duo 32 GB, OS X Catalina, Octane X PR3, Cinema 4d R21 and R23 same issues.

Workarond: Switched to "old Macpro Cheesegrater" with NVIDIA 1080TIs and Octane 4,05, with same properties: works (but looks not as precise as Octane X), all 4000 frames rendered in a row, no stocks, no crashes.

What to do? I need a durable production system.

Thanks for support. (by the way: When will joined rendering of Octane X together with 2020.1.x net clients will come?)

I also found the same problem, c4d no subscription edition octanex who is available, I am the annual subscription, now can't use two gpus, now I can only use the free version, it can only use a gpu, this kind of situation is very bad, a day after I saw who my account c4d stable version download, but after the download is the free version, after who disappear in c4d, is this why? Why is c4D's Ocantex PR7 not available as a subscription?

Bad link!

This is ridiculous. There are currently about five different places we can go to get builds – can someone at Otoy rationalise it please?

(Not blaming you Ahmet – you are doing great work under what seem fairly pressurised circumstances).

Here is, it's the weekend sorry. Posted from mobile. Try to understand the pain that comes with OX stuff. It's done in an unusual way, all in a rush.

Thanks, I found it. BTW there seems to be a serious issue with the Denoiser. The only way I can render is with it completely turned off (I've actually deactivated the Camera Imager to make absolutely sure).

But the good news is that the render sequence problem I had seems to have gone away!

Why is it done in a rush? This is obviously part of the development process we're not aware of!

I am using Octane X PR 7 Enterprise Stable. but I still have weird crashes often. Is that normal. I add an IES light and tried to connect an IES file and it crashed. For the other data I just added a scatter to the scene and it crashed. A few times I just added a Diffuse material and started playing with it and it froze and crashed. I get this is early but I want to make sure it is not me. That this is just something that happens. I am seeing this with the test lighting final from the manual.
