I've asked 3 people with macs
1. MacBook Pro 2017 with Ventura 13.7.1 - crossed out
2. MacBook Air M1 with Sonoma 4.1 —crossed out
3. MacBook Pro M4 Max 16/48 with Sequoia 15.2 — OK

Updated MacOS to Sequoia 15.2 - Now everything is ok, so I think minimum system requirements for Octane server 29.18 is Sonoma 14.7, not 14.5 as stated on download page. I had 14.6.1

I was confused because of this. I thought Server should work on my Ventura 14.6.1

Hi. I bought the new M4 mbp and I'm pretty happy with it for Octane.
I have a project that never crashes, very smooth and fast. But I have this other project where I use a few textures, sometimes 8K, and it crashes constantly.
If I touch anything in the texture node editor, it's almost a crash guaranty.
Here is the crash report, please let me know if you find something that could provide an explanation.

Hi,
I need to check your scene.

Please, write to help at otoy dot com asking for Beppe.

If it helps anyone, Beppe found it was the skin object in my scene. Work around: bake as alembic. ;)

I installed Octane X on my iPad but when I open it, it says unsupported GPU found. I have an 8th gen iPad with the A12 chip in it. The page on the app store says Octane is supposed to be compatible with the A12 Bionic chip. What is going on?

iPadOS 18.3.1 / iPad 8th Generation / Apple A12 Bionic
