[Greggers]

Thanks Paul, Im hoping the Mac version is the same release time.

2 days.. why plugins for modo is always the last?

I'm also looking forward to try Octane 4 Plugin, but the Standalone is still not recommended for use in production. So i think there is no need to put pressure on Paul. In my opinion it is more important that the plugin works corrects when the stable release of Octane 4 is out.

Yes - 99.9% of the work is done - I am just waiting for a clear, stable Octane 4 build before releasing the Modo plugin.

I talked to the demo artists at the OTOY booth at Siggraph a couple days ago and even they were like 'yeah, Octane has to be more stable' (paraphrasing)....so not a huge rush on this.

Why not release a rc2 version to test?? version 4 final of Modo plugin will come with bugs too of course.... Always Modo left behind.. Sad

Totally agree. All major 3d software have a working plugin for Octane4: Max, Maya, Blender, Cinema4D, Houdini, Lightwave... except Modo. It's frustrating, especially because the denoiser in Octane4 would probably help with rendertimes of my current job.
I really hope to have news and a build to test very soon.

I am waiting on a needed change from OTOY before releasing the Modo plugin. They are working on it, so there will be a release soon.

Thanks for feedback Paul. At least we know that it's close.

It is already available. Pls see the plugin release thread for Octane 3.
