there is a problem with the cinema 4d display tag on MAC and PC. If i animate a Display tag from 0-100% visibility for instance, cinema 4d Octane is crashing every time. I am on latest versions for all applications.

cheers Daniel

When I need to render an image sequence using takes, the render get stuck at the second frame, and the only solution is to force Cinema 4D to quit.
I've noticed that this happen only if the "Render AOV Manager" is enable, to save a Render pass file. If "Render AOV Manager" is disable, the image sequence gets rendered.

This happen to me on a big project with plenty of materials, so I've created a simple scene to trying to recreate the error, I've attached the scene.

I'm on the latest Octane and Cinema 4D versions.

Thank you

Hi,

Thanks for the file, I was able to reproduce this and filed it as a bug to be fixed for the next release.

Thanks for sharing the scene.
Light Masking is working as expected, but there is an issue with Live View update, so please go to "room_02" Octane Object Tag, Main tab, and enable the "Force update" option:

Hello, thank you for your answer!
Did the same as your instruction with no effect. Still get a wierd result to PV while "as expected" work of light masking at LV. Please see screenshot.

And you say nothing for a second question, unfortunately.
Here it is "a few versions ago the ability to add alpha channel to a beauty pass while saving PSD through Render AOV manager is gone. Why so? Could you fix it please?"

Thank you.

Yes this was an issue with octane 2025.1, this is fixed in the next build. The current workaround would be to add a " " (space) in the transparent channel name.

if you create a new Render Setting from scratch, everything works as expected:
