Here's a scene. If you move the display tags to different objects you'll see that different unrelated geometery won't render.

Hi Aoctar,

I have got a second graphics card that provides 3 GB VR and run it together with my first one that comes with 2 GB.
Why does the status in the live viewer show only 2 GB? I have set Octane top use both of them.

Regards

Ron

Octane only uses the amount of memory of your lowest memory card. My guess is, this is because it uses both cards and can't allocate 3Gb to a 2Gb card.

For instance, i have 4 Titans, but Octane only uses 6Gb, not 24Gb. If I had 3 Titans and 1 2Gb card, Octane would only use 2Gb.

This is the way i understand it anyway. I'm sure Aoctar can explain further or correct me if im wrong.

You're right CPU send the same scene to all gpu but the bottleneck is the Vram if one GPU have less ram then it will be the limit of the process, if there is two GPU on your Graphic card, then the limit is half of the shared memory.

Will there be a mac r14 version of 1.10(1.27)? Having good luck with it on my PC at home, would like to use some of the features on my mac at work.

i'll try to prepare a new version that's based on last sdk. Possible for Octane 1.29. But need more work

Hey Aoktar, getting a weird loop issue when an image cant be found.
This starts when I open the file and just keeps going.

thnx, it's not big problem. It's generating by material preview routine. Just start a octane render to resolve this.
