OTOY Forums

Hey,

I didn't read the install instructions for Octane, which means that I installed the CUDA driver after I installed Octane. So Octane crashed at start-up.
I uninstalled Octane with AppCleaner. But that did not help, I still can't run Octane.

Is there any way to solve this? Will be grateful for any advice, thanks!

please provide your OS version, and the details of the error report.

Wow, instant reply, thanks!

On my Hackintosh with 10.6.2, 8800GT:
"OctaneRender 1.021 beta2.1 Demo quit unexpectedly"

On my Macbook Pro 2.53GHz with 10.6.3, 9400M:
"OctaneRender 1.021 beta2.1 cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure OctaneRender 1.021 beta2.1 Demo works with this version of Mac OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to installa any available updates for Mac OS X."

remove everything and reinstall all the stuff in the correct order ?

Ok, I reinstalled everything including Xcode on the 10.6.2 system (with 8800GT) now Octane starts, however it says "No Cuda Capable Devices Found, Exiting..." Could it be the 8800GT driver that is the issue? Anyway, I won't bother you any more with this, since it's a Hackintosh. Looks like I will end up buying an Octane license for Windows

Will do the same reinstall on my MacBook tomorrow and see how that goes.

Thanks for now, cheers!

Hey,

I had the same problem, with the same computer, I swapped over to the lower spec graphics card in the macbook pro and it worked!
Try that.

I have just been informed by another user that this is a known issue and they are trying to fix it.

Hi!
I think I'm the "other user"... the problem I was talking about only happens when you have 2 nVidia cards (i.e. MBP with 9400m AND 9600GT). from the specs he posted his MBP has a 9400m only... if so Octane should work just fine
