this is new release which contains sdk 1.16. Also has some multiprocessing functions for speed.
But this can cause lot of cpu usage. Please check this, you can try to increase display refresh rate.

Some major changes since Beta 0.5.0
- Texture search paths is extending(10 texture paths)
- Save projects command improved (collect any texture from absolute or texture paths to target project folder)
- support Sdk 1.16 features
- Macosx release and demo
- Animation rendering crash and hold problem fixed
- preview renderings is working nicely (i hope)
- new camera parameters:
distort, aperture edge. Also camera film offset is linked to octane camera.
- panoramic camera crash fixed
- fixed material group checkboxes
- Speed optimisation


EDIT: UPDATED WITH SPEED OPTIMISED VERSION

Version: Beta 0.5.7

yes

Hi aoktar,

it shows 0.5.6 in the preview manager to me, when i install the new 0.5.7 (Win R14)?!
Is it only me or did you miss change version number or is it the wrong package in the right zip?

Or do I have a crazy mad octane day today?

Anybody else tried yet?

what does this do? can it convert C4D's gradient to an image texture?

Hi nehale,

well, somehow, not sure about gradients... but read it here:
http://render.otoy.com/manuals/Cinema4D/?page_id=380

Could you check what version is displayed for you in the preview window? 0.5.7?
Thnx

yes, exactly. Some shader can works, some not.
