OctaneRender™ for LightWave™ 2.0 DAILY BUILD

I am doing fine with 2.6.4 (Sep 16 2014), no problems with getting stuck.


I would change Projection node arrow color because it is not visible on node editor background.

Sorry Boris, I can't change the custom node connections colors. The LW SDK set the colors itself (I don't know how) and I can't change it.

(I was wrong, 2.6.4 works fine, I cannot delete my messages so I edit them like this to avoid misunderstandings)

BTW, what temperatures are you people getting?

My GTX690 gets 85 C and GTX Titan Black 83 C, are those too high?
If so, how can I force the fans to increase RPM?

[BorisGoreta]

That sounds about right, TITAN and TITAN black around 83 degrees here too. You cuuld download EVGA precision software and tune fan speed, but I wouldn't recommend that because it is too noisy then. You should let your cards render at their optimal clock/temp/fan speed. They adjust themselves accordingly. My fans run at 50%.

Thanks
My Titan Black: 2580rpm (graph max 6000), power 73% GPU temp now 86 C
so it sounds normal

I would like to get more cooling even if it makes some noise as it is getting warm here when two cards are heating the room air

Juanjo, it seems everything is fine, now the 2.6.4 rendered that same scene without problems.

I am VERY sorry for this hassle
It seems my system was messed up, nothing wrong with Octane.

Again, I am really sorry.

If you can, please delete the posts about this false alarm, I cannot delete my posts so I edited them to avoid misunderstandings)

No problem. Sometimes the system has problems with the GPUs that can be fixed if you reboot the computer. I should add this tip to the docs

That might be good but I should have FIRST tried to reboot before I caused you extra work (testing)
I know that 90% of the problems are fixed by reboot and also I noticed that I had not rebooted my 3D workstation for 2 weeks so...
