Octane Render Commercial v1.02 beta2 Released

[mib2berlin]

No Cuda device found .. x64 windows... drivers v190.38 older v1 works fine...

Wrong driver > read readme.txt

[yops]

the new interface is very good..

Win 64bit runs with some not major display issues here:
1- Device manager displays UNDER the render window!
2- Sometimes it is impossible to select the obj node

One ssuggestion: In the daylight system North Offsett should be in DEGRE!
Something is odd with path tracing and daylight system: the render looks weird

@ pixym: All of these issues have been noted.

Thanks.

IMPORTANT: This release uses Cuda 3.0 and requires the installation of new drivers. Please check the included readme text file for details on which drivers to get for your platform.

NOTE: Beta2 OCS project files are not backward compatible with beta1 OCS project files, due to the many changes introduced.

Radiance is this the two surprises you talked about? If not please share them.

Another thing:
Path tracing gives weird result whatever environment you use (texture or daylight)

Well thats really great news, in the time I typed the message I didn't see the changes in the web site and I was really surprised. Site is very good looking and informative. And congrats for expanding your team.

@radiance you havent mentioned Quadro drivers.

Latest for Quadro is 197.03 and has Cuda 3.0 support.
I think they should be very similar to 197.13 and ok for Octane?
