The demo versions are usually available once we release the first stable builds.
Thanks,

Hello!
The "Instance object node" works only the first time I render it. If I close the IPR window and relaunch it, it gives me an error. Even if with only one instance.
To restart the render I have to close Houdini and reopen it.
I have 2080ti x2 and I tried to disable the RTX option and also the NVlink but the problem is not solved.
Here the error and I attached a scene as example:
*** OCTANE API MSG: device 0: failed to bind device to thread, since it's already bound
*** OCTANE API MSG: device 0: failed to initialize context
*** OCTANE API MSG: device 1: failed to bind device to thread, since it's already bound
*** OCTANE API MSG: device 1: failed to initialize context
*** OCTANE API MSG: device 0: failed to initialize render thread 000000522DA9E710
*** OCTANE API MSG: device 1: failed to initialize render thread 000000522DA9E920

Vectron parameter's with underscore character in them worked fine in 2020.1, now they return zero and throw this error:
23:03:51 ERROR: [vop] The pin Displace Use is not available in this Octane node
This breaks a lot of code.
Beside this problem it seems more stable with vectron scenes, great work!
