NEW: Octane X - is finally here! [MEGA FAQ THREAD]

[Weezer]

Yep, the denoising issue has been noted. Hopefully we'll see a fix pretty soon.

[mikefix]

Any insights on how fast Octane is on the M1 processor?

Hey there

I'm using C4D R23 (last build) with PR7 and I have this issue:

Code: Select all

Octane X Prime PR7 (Internal Build) (10000302)

Compute error 2097152:116: 
compute device 0: Linking 6d197dfc90d19e72 shader failed
device 0: failed to initialize render thread 0x7fa73148a350

LV is black, nothing happens.
My device: iMac Pro 2017 Radeon Pro Vega 64X 16 GB

Thanks for your help!

I'm having the same problem but with both the Standalone and Blender version.

I'm using iMac 2019 with Vega 48

Can anyone report on the speed of Octane on the M1?

Cool thanks, yea I not able to use it. I have some weird crashes here and there that have no rime or reason. Like I changed the float on a transmission on a spectacular material and it crashes and errors. Load it back up and works fine. I have this happen when just learning the renderer with the files from the manual.

[Jedi_blade]

Is there any news on the denoiser and upsampler for Octane X? I have played with it and I cannot get it to work without erroring but I do not see anything on here saying what is going on. The Download claims it is stable so what is happening for us.

[Weezer]

Well it’s the Christmas holidays and the middle of a pandemic, so I’m not expecting miracles at the moment. Give it time.

And I will ask again about these free licenses for those who bought a Mac in 2019 and 2020.
I am still holding back on buying an annual subscription because it was promised a year and a half ago.
Any dates known?

One year free trial of OctaneX. However, I cannot get it to work.
