It would be cool to expose these buttons to renderer properties, so we can use in maxscript.

Keep nodes is kind of magic ! But if just moving an object octane reload the geometry... strange.
Where is stored all the data ? When opening Octane render devices préférences, after closing octane viewport window, no memory is used by the gpus.

I found reason why render had stuck at "Scene evaluation" stage
It is happening after texture compression of an RGB Image node

When using non movable proxy, there is no effect. ( or so small perhaps )

Hi HHbomb,
I personally always use everything movable proxy now, I would like developers to set everything movable proxy as default.
I see no more convenience not to use all the movable proxy.

Thanks SergKlyosov,
I can confirm your issue.
A workaround get back to Faster (compression).

Hi Paride,

For which setting are you referring to? I can't see "faster" option in compression settings of RGB Image node
Also haven't found them in the Global Settings

I found "faster", but I'm not sure it's working. I can't go through all my maps and change this. I'm reverting back to prev version.

I have 16k normal map which eats a lot of memory, so I decided to compress it. I don't see any quality change in my render, but it frees 1GB of VRAM
I have only these options inside texture compressions settings, see attached image

I'm sure the texture compression thing 'works', but I still couldn't render. It stayed a black screen. I have too many maps I'd have to edit to 'faster' so I'm not going to bother.

i am getting this error. RC4 didnt have this bug Thanks
