On a first glance, this is good, exporting/importing nodes, live DB, the outliner are very nice features. I also tested some scene, I think import time is reduced? I'm not sure though, will compare on the 2 versions.

Good work.

Looks like I was too quick to read what Win7 wanted from me when installed 2.3.
Now I always get "could not connect to server"
I disabled my anti-virus and firewall but cant activate my precious. Why oh why!!!

Help me please

Hi radiance or Nostromo

After registration on the first trie with 800000polygon scene was the performance very slow. By launch number 2, 3, 4, 5 Octane don't startet.

save node when right click on a material in the node inspector or the graph editor is very good too, now material are really re-usable between scenes/users/projects.

When I type mine ID and password I get "Invalid OctaneLive account or wrong account / password combination" message.

I've just send an e-mail to [email protected] because there was also no active licence on my account, is this loging in problem caused by that?

Octane started only the fist time, now it just say octane.exe has stopped working: close the program:-( every time...

I did start it from the rar archive, maybe that is what i did wrong... But it will not start again no matter what.

the reason i had to start it again was it crashed after i changed from diffuse to macro in a material...

No rush, i to need sleep now:-)

After a second test, no the import time is the same, I thought you guys said it will be half the time of the old version?

Also the proc. texture scaling implementation is different between 2.2 and 2.3, here is the scene in 2.2:

Hmmm... octane crashed when trying to save the image, and when re-open, the turbulence bump was completely wrong, before crashing it was taking the shape of parallel lines not noise,I was using float 3 for the scaling. Here is the image after crash and re-open in 2.3 and capture the scene, since trying to save the image always caused octane to crash:

You used an installer? The one I downloaded (64bit) was just a set of zipped files that I put into a new location and it worked fine.
