Guillermo, I think there was a problem with the installer, which I will fix today. I also have Polyface Mesh objects loading into Octane (for AutoCAD 2013 - haven't tried 2014 or 2015 yet), however there are no vertex normals provided by AutoCAD for these objects, so you need to turn OFF "Smooth" for each material. I will post updated installers in the net 8hrs.

I have refreshed the installers at the top of this thread with:

1.53.1.8
- Compiled against Octane 1.53.1
- Fixed issue preventing Polyface Mesh objects from being loaded. NOTE: Normals are NOT provided by AutoCAD for these objects, so DISABLE SMOOTHING for all materials of these objects
- Changed installer so that the 2013, 2014 and 2015 version of the plugin install into separate folders in the OctaneRender for AutoCAD.bundle\Contents\Windows\ folder
- Fixed minor installer issue which required an uninstall prior to installing a previous version
- Added AutoCAD 2015 installer (type the command OCTANERENDER to start the plugin)
- Removed 32 bit installers (since no on appears to be using the 32bit)

Hi Paul
Octane Plugin for ACAD 2015 does not load in AutoCAD 2015, when I write OCTANERENDER in the command line it answers "command unknown", please check it.
Octane Plugin for ACAD 2014 works great.

Hi Guillermo - I found a problem with the installer, which I have now fixed. Can you pls re-download from the link at the top of this thread (version number has not changed) and install again and it should hopefully now work.

Hi Paul
I got problems with the latest plugin version 1.55, it seems that it does not save materials, and it shows this message when I open the plugin tab, also it never stops showing the message loading materials. At the end it does not load the saved materials.Please check.

Regards

Guillermo R.
