Hi Guys,

sorry if the question seems a little bit thoughtless. In our studio we use deadline for our network renderings from cinema4D and aftereffects.

Now, we want to buy the Octane Cinema4D Plugin and the Octane Standalone Version, to use the Octane Cinema4D Plugin inside Cinema4D as our Renderengine. Is it still possible for Deadline to render these Files from cinema4D now with Octane as the RenderEngine? Could there be a problem? Or is this nothing, Deadline cares about?

I can´t test this out, because the Demoversion of the Octane cinema4D Plugin comes without a saving option.

Hope this Question isn´t too stupid.

Hi
I think if Octane uses the native C4D render output like vrayc4d does, it shouldn't be a problem. But i don't konw anything about Octane so don't take my word for it

Cheers

The way that Deadline works, sending a command line instruction to C4D, it should work assuming Octane can work in such and environment, and the scene file can contain the information on the renderer. I would verify with the makers of Octane that their renderer will work for a command line C4D render with no UI.




So… is this the case? I just need to know this, before we can buy this awesome Renderer.

Thank you so much.

demo version can save images from picture viewer. So you should test it. I think to get a answer for deadline, not too easy
