short answer: no.[email protected] wrote:Hey, just a quick question, does it matter what version of standalone octane do I have as long as I use 3ds max octane plugin?
or for better performance it's better to have latest octane standalone?
Then why we need to buy standalone in order to get Max plugin?t_3 wrote: short answer: no.
the plugin uses it's own octane engine (which is not necessarily the same version like the standalone)...
a plugin is only available as an additional license together with octane. that you don't need to install (or use) the standalone to use the plugin is more a technical aspect. also every integrated plugin will require it's own license. and because of that system octane's base price is a steal, and even if you buy two or three additional plugins you still pay much less than for other engines...suvakas wrote:Then why we need to buy standalone in order to get Max plugin?t_3 wrote: short answer: no.

I don't even use standalone. Is it because some licensing system you don't have working for plugins or?

to be honest, i don't know; if you need to know that, i'll forward the question to the otoy staff...suvakas wrote:If I want to buy another Max plugin for my other Pc, then should I also buy additional standalone copy?
