Hi All,

I get a full 3ds Max 2014 crash when I open the material editor when I try to add a Octane material. Max freezes to a halt, where I have no ability to close Max without killing it from a ctl+alt+delete. If anyone has a solution to this, any advice would be appreciated.

Note: I just got finished trying out the demo, which performed flawlessly. No crashes, odd behaviors, etc.

Win 7 64
Latest Nvidia Driver (Strix GTX980)
Standalone version 2.25
Max Plugin Version 2.25-2.22

I got it working. I uninstalled the Nvidia driver and did a clean install of the new driver. This fixed the issue.

I had the same problem some days ago.
I installed a clean driver of Nvidia but nothing.
The solution was:
Verify if your system appair a VGA card onboard together your Nvidia card.
I must disable it from Bios.
Now Octane recognize only a Nvidia card and now run all perfectly.

Hi,

I'm glad you managed to fix it. Apologies for not getting to you sooner. If there are any other issues, please let me know

the important is to solve!
Happy to do it.
