And, please, tell what i need to buy for rendering animation scene?
Animation - interiors, abstraction for video, cars.
The working programs - rhino and 3dmax. Maybe c4d - in the learning process.

Hi sergej,

make sure that there are no Cyrillic characters in your directories or your files or your materials.

octane can´t handle that.


rhino won´t make animations. I don´t know 3dmax. You might try blender if you want.


Good Luck!

Hi,

I suggest you buy a bundle of octanerender standalone and octanerender for 3ds max,
Which costs 179 EUR. This will allow you to do animations straight from 3ds max.

The octanerender for 3ds max is a new product that integrates octanerender directly into 3ds max, here is more information about it:

Hi!

I have a similar problem as Sergei, demo turns on normally but when I load the OBJ and click on it, the program closes after loading with 9.4 mega from GPU.

Computer: Asus GeForce GTX 560 1024MB DDR5 256bit, Asus P5G41T-M - LX , 8gb RAM, quad core 2.4 Ghz
Windows 7, the latest nvidia driver "290" and Cuda toolkit 4.0.

once the program displays a window with "OpenGL error"

Do you have an idea how to fix the problem?

Thanks.

Hi, what version of OctaneRender have you got? Are you using the demo version? The current demo available is stil based on beta version 2.46b and uses CUDA 3.0 or 3.2

I downloaded the demo version from your website (2.46b and 3.2 cuda driver) because I wanted to check before buying.

The program turns on normally, but when I click on obj file or add new material or open the octane project and click on it program is closed.

Maybe there is something wrong with the graphics card?

try also using CUDA 3.0 instead of 3.2 sometimes that helps
