Octane Render 2.0 for Cinema 4D previews

[zackyd]

Thank you for the response and the new screen shots!
The hairs look incredible.

Nice work.

Does the plugin utilise the native c4d hair shader for doing things like colour along curve or frizz, density etc?

Displacements look great, how much does it affect gpu memory?

Thanks for the daily previews, loving the insight.

This is looking wonderful - great work Ahmet. You are our hero!

With regard to some of the feature requests, my take on it is that - eventually - the guys at OTOY need to support everything possible. They clearly want to sell their online rendering solution to big studios and film companies, and those are the clients that will push for these features. Anything a studio will need for production, OTOY will need to deliver at some point - multipass, object/light exclusion, you name it...

Also, look at the competition in this space: there's a lot of activity and while, for me, Octane looks one of, if not the best GPU renderers out there, they do need to keep up the pace of development. But I think by the end of the year, there will be a lot of very happy Octane users. Fingers crossed!

Upgraded and downloaded! Thanks for fixing the download / payment issue.
Looking forward to having a good play with it. As people say, hair and displacement looks great. I'm also really please to see sun+HDRI lighting integrated
Thanks aoktor + otoy team!

Hi Ahmet,

I am all cleared to download the beta plugin but it doesn't include C4D ver12 that I use. Is this going to change soon? It seems you are making very good progress getting a useful beta.

stefan?
can you check the gpu devices on Settings Window? If there is no device, this shows a driver problem or gpu is not compatible.

for 2.0? If so you should also put a octane material to Hair object
