I don't know what kinda of magic you put in to this latest version but it for sure is some good stuff! I don't remember the LV being this damn responsive!!! I mean it is INSTANT! You are amazing!

Good to hear! Are you comparing it with which version?

It works perfectly for now ! But Ray Epsilon sliders are totally out of values for all kernel types and exposure slider value is probably too high too. The same with GI Clamp.

Also I see that it works way much faster using min. display samples - it uses more GPU usage and less CPU for that now.

Great that using the new browser watch folders Octane not copy assets to tex folder as it is from other browser folders.

Static noise doesn't work if Render Region is used. It works fine for Film Region.
Why do you care of it? RR is just for adjusting the partial areas. It's not a plugin related thing also.

It works in latest update now

Thank you !

@aoktar, is there a 2023 build for Apple M1 on the way? I've not yet managed to trick the R26 build into loading in 2023 and I'd love to see if it fixes my R26 "constantly crashing C4D when rendering a universal material" problem.

UPDATE: I feel silly. I thought this thread was geared toward the Mac version of 2022.1-XB3-R4 plugin. I see on the main Octane X for Mac thread that 2023 isn't supported. I will submit a support ticket regarding 2022.1-XB3-R4 plugin not working with C4D R25.120

Sorry for my ignorance, but how do I install the Octane 2022.1-XB3-R4 plugin for C4D 2023?
1) I downloaded the plugin from https://render.otoy.com/plugindownloads ... R3_OSX.zip on the first page of this thread.
2) I created a plugins folder in /Applications/Maxon Cinema 4D 2023/plugins and in C4D's plugins preferences, I added that folder.
3) I copied the c4dOctane folder into /Applications/Maxon Cinema 4D 2023/plugins and removed the c4dOctane-R25.xlib, leaving the c4dOctane-R26.xlib
4) After getting the Mac Security & Privacy warning a couple times when launching C4D, I "Allowed Anyway"
5) I disabled "Open using Rosetta"

When C4D 2023 opens, there is no Octane menu. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Am I misunderstanding what you mean with the "FIXED 2023 build"? Users @SSmolak and @LOVEXMEDIA seemed to indicate that 2022.1-XB3-R4 plugin is running in C4D 2023.

I do still have C4D R25.120 installed with the previous version of the Octane C4D plugin. It crashes too often but is still mostly useable. Before updating to C4D 2023, I tried installing 2022.1-XB3-R4 plugin with my existing C4D R25.120 install (removed old c4doctane folder, disabled rosetta) and I could see the Octane menu in C4D, but as soon as I opened the Live Viewer and pressed the render button, C4D crashed. This is why I updated to C4D 2023.

I'm on a MacBook Pro 16in, M1 Max, 32GB RAM. Any help would be appreciated.

Yes I'm trying to solve the last problem that's avoiding me to make it's available. BTW give me the details for your crashes via PM.

OctaneFloatSlider interface type from User Data is not visible in XPresso - moving it does nothing.
