OctaneRender™ for Blender 2.06 - 6.4 Linux [OBSOLETE]

The Linux version of OctaneRender™ for Blender plugin, 64-bit.


The bundle consists from two parts:
1. OctaneRender™ Server
2. Blender - OctaneRender™ edition.

The first part (server) should be run on the same computer as the second one..
After the server is run - you can start rendering (or open a rendered view) from inside Blender. Before the very first rendering you should fill in the server address (only 127.0.0.1 at the time), login and password (your license key info) to activate the server. After the first rendering the server will remember this activation info, and you will not need to enter it again.

You should use only OctaneRender materials inside Blender scenes - the plugin knows nothing about Blender specific materials and textures (about any Blender nodes, generally speaking).


FIXES AND NEW FEATURES SINCE LAST RELEASE
  • Fixed bug: crashed in some cases when adding new image texture during Live-Render active.
  • Reworked translation of modified geometry (to address the bug reported by aLeXXtoR).

Installation:
- Just run the installer to see its command line keys.;)
- If you need to run the OctaneServer - run it as daemon:

kaiwas - looks like you have the nodes setup incorrectly, I would double check and make sure that the pins you are connecting are correct for the node you are using.

Jimstar - Unfortunately Blender crashed when I was rendering an animation. Here is the error file output:

Hi Synthercat, could you please share the command you used for the softlink? ;)

regards,
Alvaro

NM, I got it. ;) I just needed to "sudo locate" where the library was to set the paths properly. It's working fine now with this command:

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so.1.10 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so.1.5
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. :D
