no problem here with french version.
My config vista 64'bits, 64 go RAM, 3 titan black
C4D R16 last update

I'm noticing a few bugs here and there on this release related to live viewer crashes when altering materials:

Altering the texture projection settings of a gradient in the diffuse channel causes the LV and cinema to freeze with no recovery regularly.

Changing values in the blackbody emission texture of luminous materials within a mix material that is blended with a dirt texture crashes the LV and cinema to freeze with no recovery regularly.

Motion blur and DOF are enabled on the octane camera, as well is camera imager, and post effects.

I'm running c4d r15 on windows 7

sometimes i am getting a crash when i change the kernel in octane setting.

Hi
I wonder where the "render layer" option is, in the octane settings, for viewing in live viewer. This is a feature I use very often, but it seems to have dissapeared in this latest version?

Yes, I can see it in the render settings and it works when I render to picture viewer, but for preview purposes it was very nice to be able to see this in the live viewer. Is this something we can have back?

I have removed it because of some critisms about making confusion to people. People wish to have just one control.

Ok. I would really love to get this feature back. I use it all the time. Its a BIG time saver for seperating objects and testing out lighting/materials/mask etc without having to render the entire scene in the live viewer - or wasting time render to picture viewer while your testing...
May I suggest to work in a feature to make the live viewer render the same as the picture viewer. So when I define my render layer in the render settings, this is what will render in the live-viewer? That way there will be no confusion about control.

awesome plugin though! getting some pretty nice results in a fraction of the time
