Re: 'wait for it no matter what'....hmmm well to be honest I am thinking I'll change over to using Cycles soon if...

Hi Guys,

We are rewriting some parts of the security system as we have discovered a vulnerability,
and also have decided to add the V-Ray to OctaneRender automatic material translation system feature for the first release, instead of pushing it to the 2nd release.
Also, due to a decent flu (influenza) going round here in NZ we have been delayed a bit...

We will release it when it's ready
I can't give an exact date but we are aiming for early next week, definately before christmas

Influenza going around in NZ
In Nelson I haven't seen anyone even sniffling in months, must breed them tough in the South, but then again its summer... wimpy Aucklanders!
OK so we all come back again next week.... ...and definitely before Xmas

Wow, that will be awesome

I thought it would be already released after my holidays but only 10 more pages of waiting here.

As a tester I also signed the NDA but it ended some time ago as far as i remember. But it wont just not be fair to post stuff from the builds all over the internet.

I just feel sorry for the Devs. They made such a large announcement to the community and other sites but have a delay now which is never good for further releases and PR. It seems you already need to have a tool finished before announcing it officially.

Take You Time Guys & Do it, release when You ready! This is going to be epic!

Just one thing. Make a preorder option, so the guys could pay in front =)..
