@cjadams: It seems that you are working with a Beta version of Big Sur.
Please install Mac Os 11.2.1 stable and report back, thanks.

@horudod:
Experimental M1 chip support is only in Standalone PR7 for now, plugins for M1 should arrive with next PR8 version.
Unfortunately Standalone PR7 Prime it is not available for now, you need to have a little bit of more patience.

@ bepeg4d

Thank you! Where can I find Standalone PR7 version and is it free trial?

Cheers!

Yes i know it worked on 11.2 I really DON"T want to do a wipe and re-install here.. so do you know if this will work with the upcoming 11.3 ?
If so .. i will just wait.. or punt and use RS which seems to work.
It seems both renderers are ping/ponging back and forth between working and NOT working between OS builds.. Very frustrating!

Hello there!
Thanks for your work, I'm so happy that finally it's possible to use octane on mac!
I was wondering, what's the status of free one year license for users on 2020/2019 macs with big sur mentioned here https://home.otoy.com/octane-x-pr1 ?
Is it already available?

@ihorudod:
Only Standalone is working at the moment on M1 Chip, but free Standalone Prime version will be available via Apple Store only, so it has to follow other rules.
Only free Prime plugins are available on the forum, you need a Studio or Enterprise active license to be able to download Standalone PR7.

@cjadams:
Yes sure, it will work with 11.3, but only when the stable version will be published, the support to Big Sur Beta versions is not guaranteed.

@ShapeJewelry:
The OctaneX Prime tier is free for at least all of 2021. The expiration date that you see is a rolling expiration date so it will continue to automatically extend itself as needed.

Happy Mac GPU rendering,

Wait, is the free license working? How to turn it on? In the Store tab, I can only buy it and pay for it. I have a MacBook Pro 16 "I bought in 2020.

Hi,
OctaneX PR7 Big Sur 11.1 Free Prime plugins are available at OTOY shop page, for:

Cinema 4D
Maya
Houdini
LightWave
SketchUp
Blender

https://render.otoy.com/shop/primex.php

They are limited to max 1x GPU, and require Big Sur 11.1 or greater, with an AMD GPU or Intel SkyLake GPU (Apple M1 GPU support is considered beta/experimental)

As said, the prime tier is free for at least all of 2021. The expiration date that you see is a rolling expiration date so it will continue to automatically extend itself as needed.

Happy Mac GPU Rendering,
ciao Beppe
