How could you work with R21? We don't have any version for that
i use Octane X PR14 (Monterey) version

Confusing! PR versions are not M1/M2. Just for old Intel/AMD machines.

New C4D-OctaneX 2022.1-RC1-R2 with some fixes:
viewtopic.php?f=85&t=80670

@nipper127: OctaneX PR14 works only under Monterey, and it is designed to work with AMD GPUs.
With M1/M2 mac, under Monterey or Venture, you need OctaneX 2022.1-RC1-R2, but it works only with C4D R15, R26, and 2023.

@RegSquires: AI Denoiser support is not finished for M1/M2, but it is pretty fast in my tests, compared with old PR14.
Can you share a scene that shows the issue with me via Private Message?

ciao,

Yes please, avoid to use C4D nodes, Octane has its own nodes.
For example, you can replace the C4D Gradient shader with the new Octane Gradient Generator node:

And the C4D Noise shader with new Octane Noise4D node:

Hi,
please have a look at this table here:
Image

For Mac with AMD GPU, you need to stay with macOS 12.6.1 Monterey and C4D_OctaneX-PR14, it works with C4D R21 to 2023, in particular, for C4D 2023, you can find it here:
viewtopic.php?f=85&t=77493&start=100#p416602

For Mac with M1/M2 chip, just install the latest 2022.1-RC1-R2 version, it works in both macOS 12 Monterey, and 13 Ventura, with C4D R25, 26, and 2023:
https://render.otoy.com/plugindownloads ... r2_OSX.zip
For C4D 2023, you need to keep the R27.xlib file, and remove both R25 and R26.xlib files.

Beppe

As the guy who originally asked for it, I suspected that table might save you some headaches down the line. :D
Perhaps a link to it can be added to the start of this thread, along with the date of the table's most recent update, or even pinned as its own post under,
