Octane for Poser and GTX Titan

Hi

I have just purchased the Nvidia GTX Titan with 6GB of VRAM (and it is fast!). I also have a GTX 680 as a second card running just the displays and the OS. When I run the standalone
Octane Render it indicates that I have 6GB ram (and is clearly using my Titan since there is no speed reduction in using the OS). If I run the Octane for Poser plug-in however I appear to only have 2GB
of VRAM (which coincidentally is the amount on my GTX580) despite assigning my Titan as the only Cuda device - and the OS is slow - suggesting that my 680 is being used. I know that Octane for Poser
is only in beta at the moment, but is there any limitation on memory use? I can't see any other device settings - but I am new to this so perhaps I have missed something. Any ideas anyone?

Regards

Hi

The plugin will be using the full 6Gig - I am pretty sure it is just a display issue. This issue has been reported previously.

Could you pls start a render, then put the mouse over the status bar at the bottom of the OctaneRender Viewport and take a screenshot. Then email me at "paul at physicalc-software.com". I'll send you a small patch which I hope will fix the issue.
