OTOY Forums

I've been tasked with looking into "3rd party" rendering options for our Architecture firm. So reading some revit forums I took the suggestion to try Octane. However I can't seem to get the demo to work at all.

Information-
Windows 7 64 bit.
Revit 2013 64 bit.
Nvidia Quadro FX4600 running driver version 340.66
Direct x 11

This is the error message I get:

Started logging on 22.08.14 16:18:39

OctaneRender version 2.05.2 (2050002)

device 0: failed to find a CUDA binary matching compute model 1.0

I've also attached a screen shot.

What am I doing wrong here?

Hi - your graphics card is quite old, and has a Compute Capability of 1.0, which is insufficient for Octane 2.0. Pls see https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus. I might have an old version of the demo available on my backups somewhere, which I can send you - but better option would be to trial the plugin on a more current video card.

Thank you Paul. I'll see if I can get the boss to spring for a new card. It's unlikely but worth a shot.
