Octane X for Unreal Engine 4.26

Installation guide:
- Unzip in the zip file in the plugin folder of unreal
(Default location: /Users/Shared/Epic Games/UE_4.26/Engine/Plugins)

Limitations:
- Unreal to Octane material conversion is turned off for now. It will be added back in for later builds.
For now users are adviced to use octane material instances.

This is a similar build to 0.41

UE 4.26

Enterprise Installer: https://www.otoyserver.com/unrealengine ... _macOS.zip

Hi, the download links do not work anymore.

Is it in any way possible to run Octane plugin for the Unreal Engine 5 on Mac (Apple Silicon)? I would happily send you 200 dollars if you can provide one. Cause I do not want to have to get a Windows computer just for it.

Octane runs so well on Apple Silicon as a standalone, just misses the Unreal Plugin.

I have my animations in Unreal - Needed to be rendered in Octane. Is it possible to somehow manually export/convert so it can be done in Octane standalone? (while the animation still uses Unreals animation like physical gravity forces)

Just found one version in downloads section "macOS Octane X PR8 (Big Sur)(x64 Archive)"

If it works with Unreal Engine 5 and is more than 1/4 as speedy as the latest standalone Octane on Macos I'm gonna be so happy!

Installing Unreal Engine v4.26 now.

Since Unreal works so well on MacOS now, native in the latest version. And since it has been several versions since the last Octane plugin for Unreal. Could you make a new Octane plugin for the latest version?
