Hi all,

I have teh pluin fro Poser been using it now about a year, love it.

I am tryign to try it now for 3DS MAX , downloaded the demo version and tried renderign but I only get a black screen (withteh demo logo of course visable.

I went through the plug in manual cant figure out why its not rendering anything (black screen) in my scene, is there anything out there to help out a beginer with inital set up for the plug in for MAX. Admitedly I am new to using MAX for renderign too, (I may be doing somehitng wrong or not setting something up i should be in MAX) been playing with it for a few months using VRay but figured I would give Octane a look

hi bpzen

do you have more than one gfx card installed?

Hi there, I do

GTX 770 x 2

Ah ok. That should not be a problem then.

I have two cards, one that is supported by octane and one that is not. If I start 3ds with the monitor connected to the unsupported one, I get black renders.

Just a dum question. Have you added an octane daylight and camera?

I jsut tried with teh default image, i can try teh day light, i also di dnto add lights in max, at all, jsut wnated to see if it works, run a few test then prob buy full version but wnat to get ti funtioning first
