I currently use Octane 2021.1.1 and was trying to update to 2021.1.3, but when I do, Cinema gets hung up in the splash screen while loading the plugins. I also tried 2021.1.2 but got the same issue. I also tried restarting my computer and then running Cinema, but nothing changed. I'm also running the latest Nvidia studio drivers.

Does anyone know of something I could try to get the new Octane version to work?

Make sure you have just the one XDL installed for your version of Cinema. Mine is c4dOctane-R25.xdl64 Remove the others that are not specific to your version of Cinema 4D.

Yes, I forgot to mention I did this as well, but still encountered the glitch. Also, I load my plugins through the folder linked to the "Open Preferences Folder" location (Appdata\Roaming\Maxon\etc...).

Hi,
maybe the plugin got corrupted during unpacking :roll:
Or maybe you have more than one c4doctane folder installed in C4D :roll:

Please download and install again c4doctane 2021.1.3, but this time use 7zip to uncompress the .RAR archive, it is free:

If not enough, please write to help at otoy dot com, we have a tool to check c4doctane installations.

ciao,
Beppe
