Hello,
Octane Override on Modo 801 doesn' work.
Also when Shader Tree->Add Layer->Custom Materials->Octane Override, there isn't such Octane material.
I'm OctaneRender_for_Modo_701_1_52_0_64_beta_64bit.
Thanks.

Octane Override on Modo 801 doesn' work.

This does provide much info. Does the Octane Override item get added to the shader tree? Is there an error message? Is there anything in the Modo Event Log?

Also when Shader Tree->Add Layer->Custom Materials->Octane Override, there isn't such Octane material.

I wuld have thought it not possible for an Octane Override item to NOT be added to the Shader tree, and there not be some sort of error message. If you click Add Octane Ovrride from the OctaneRender Setup panel, do nodes get added to the Schematic of that panel? Can you pls check the Modo Event Log and Octane Cuba log for errors?

Paul

Hi Paul,
Thanks for answering.
Clicking on override buttom get a error message 'create shader > failed'. In Shader Tree , in costum materials there is no octane material to choose from.
Already re-install Modo Plugin twice. This happen after i upgrade from Octane 1.51 to 1.53. Already downgraded but it still fail.
Regards.

Hi Carlos.

1) Is Octane Standalone working for you?
2) Did the plugin work with Modo701 on that PC?
3) What cuda drivers do you have installed
4) What other Modo plugins do you have installed?

Thanks

Paul

Hello Paul,

1) Yes, both 1.51 an 1.53.
2) Yes.
3) GTX 680 with the latest driver 335.23
4) HDRLS, SES 1 and 2, PAD, PACK and XSR

Thanks.

Hi Carlos

I've had no other reports of this problem, and I've never seen it before - so my apologies for not having an immediate answer.

Can you pls try disabling ALL other plugins and then trying to add an Octane Override.
If you get "create shader > failed" can you pls post you Modo Event Log.

Thanks

Paul

Hi Paul

With all other plugins disabled it stil fail.

Thanks Carlos

Can you pls try deleting your Modo801.cfg file and then try adding an Octane Override.

If that does not work, can you pls start a new Modo scene, add a cube, then try to add an Octane Override to the cube material (which should fail), save the lxo and post the lxo in this thread.

Thanks

Paul

Hi Paul,

Now its working on 1.53.1.65

Enable one kit at time and its working with all kits.

Before (with OctaneRender for Modo 701 1.52.0.64 beta (64 bit)), deleting modo801 config and with all kits disabled, it still didn't work. Must be something to do with the plugin.

Anyway, thanks for your help.

Carlos

Glad you are up and running Carlos. I suspect it might have been an incomplete installer download - since there were no other reports of this.
