Hi,

This is the first public beta release of the OctaneRender™ 2.2 for Houdini™ plugin. This 2.23.2.3 build is available for all the Houdini 14.0 current production releases in Windows x64 and Linux gcc4.8

Note: Currently in Linux you need to put the files inside the "bin" folder (liboctane.so and octane.dat) in the /lib folder of your system, or configure the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to point to the plugin "bin" folder (for example in the shell, "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=:/path/to/octane/bin")


Beta release 2.23.2.3

Great news!

Very cool stuff!

I have added a new link to download the Windows/Linux plugin build for Houdini 14.0.361.

This build only has internal changes to support the Octane Demo API, so it has no new features or bug fixed over the 2.23.2.3

yeah thanks for your work

Juanjo,

Thank you for your incredible in depth work making this plugin happen! Just got it up and running yesterday on my Houdini FX machine. I love the way you cleverly integrated it into the shelf. This is a game changer!

Best,
Nick

Would love to see an OS X version too.

At some point along the open beta I want to release the OSX version. Currently I am not sure how many people is going to work with Octane in Mac, because near all Macs have only Intel or ATI GPUs, but anyway Octane and Houdini could be used working with expansion boxes, hackintosh or later with Octane 3 and OpenCL support.

Can you please tell me more details about your problem? ... there isn't nothing called Fuse_color in the plugin. I think that can be a problem with the houdini.env file, perhaps a mistake in the environment variables. Can you post your houdini.env file?

Thanks,
