sorry, me again,

since some time I recognize two curious things going on
all the time.

1. In the Info-Bar there is flickering the text: "INSTANCE LIST CREATING..." without stopping
2. Some Texture Icons in the Mat-Manager are getting dark suddenly
I have the feeling, that I accidentally changed some settings and
cannot find out which. Or is this something totally different?

And: my animated tv screens (with texture-emission) are producing heavy hotpixels.
Any suggestions how to solve this? I think its the "sample rate" from the emission settings
in material settings. But what value is usuals without raising the rendertime too much?

thanks
Mike

without doing anything Octane is converting my materials ???

another issue.

I have a MorphCam Setup with three MorphCameras
and a Stage objekt.

Now, everytime I try to set a focus of one of the Cameras
and rise the apperture Octane and C4D is instantly crashing.

All this stange things appeared, since I got the idear, to add my
Sony TV as second screen on my titan card. But I got performance issues and
disconnected the TV again.
Since that, Octane seams to play up.

I already made some "normal" restarts but behavior stays.
What can I do?

thanks
Mike

mograph+instances can cause this flickers on geometry updates. Ignore it.
if you have hardness on mat. previews keep open octane dialog or restart a render
if you talk about standart materials, plugin does some convertion but it's not enough for complex materials
