IMPORTANT INSTALL NOTES:
Due to the switch to CUDA 6.5 you will need a current graphics driver of version 344.x or higher. On Mac OSX you will need a CUDA driver of version 6.5 or higher (see http://www.nvidia.com/object/mac-driver-archive.html). The minimum supported version of Mac OS is 10.7.
Also matching version of Standalone 2.1x is highly recommended.
And remove all old plugin files before installing. Any version conflict or old drivers can cause crashes
Cuda driver for Macos: http://www.nvidia.com/object/macosx-cud ... river.html


Quick note for New Render Passes usage:
Not yet documented but, don't use C4D multi-pass system. Activate it from Octane render setting -> Renderpasses.
Some passes will not available on Picture Viewer. But it will be saved to hdd. I'll try to fix this issue soon.

BUG REPORTS
I'll be happy, if anyone can be spesific with bug reports.
I need to know that plugin version/Os/HW, bugreport zip. Last operations before crashes.
Please post your reports in topic of version which is related.
Thanks for contributions

Best regards,
Ahmet Oktar

And in this version too..still this bug with new GUI. Please fix Resent Buttons

i have an issue here.. the sliders aren't effected by the value you enter by keybord.

I played around with the "Side" material and getting some good results.
Bump however seems to destroy the effect of the map! It seems to jump to one of the two sides (displaying them on both sides)immediately after pump is turned on.

Here are some results (without bump fot the reason mentioned above)

I have some problems with render settings window.
Buttons and sliders didnt react, when render settings window stacked to the interface.
It needs to be open up again and again, when you make some changes.

Live viewer is enough to work. don't use octane dialog until it's fixed.

if think you mean that when switched between layouts? If you call the "settings windows" command, it would refresh. I'll look for a solution.
