Hey guys,
R15 and Octane Standalone/Plugin on newest versions.
In the Live Viewer, renderlayer are shown correctly, the masks work perfectly aswell. When rendering, all objects seem to be on the same layer, everything turns out as dark red matte.
Any idea, what might be the problem?

I advice to watch tutorials and read manual. You should set always "Resend only updated objects" to get same output as LV. Also read info about new options. I think i will have to remove this "Send all data" option at the end.
Also you should know that all objects are on render layer id=1 by default, red colors. If you set id>1 and change to "Resend only updated objects", output will be same.

Thank you for the advice, sadly the Expresso that rotates all the tiny cube segments I used is ignored when not resending all scene data - even though I gave them an Octane ObjectTag (see attachment). Do I have to change something?
Which info about new options did you mean? I have no options for the geometry control - was there an update i missed?

Can you give me problematic part. I can fix it. Btw, you can add some keys to force updates on geometry. You can't get ids on "send all data". Because this method collapses all meshes to a single mesh as C4D's "Connect Objects" command.
I mean render settings part in manual also in 2.24 release topic notes.

There is lot of things to handle and detect the updates for geometries. Any scene will welcome to help me to see missed things. Also user feedbacks are gold for me, thanks.
