Hi

Deamons are running on both machines. I have octane standalone on both of them but i have only one c4d plugin license. For some reason standalone can see my GPU's but c4d cant see them.

Hi PiotrAdamczyk,
could you try with only Cinema 4D active on the master and one daemon active only on the slave?
What do you see in Live Viewer info after loading any kind of scene?

Is your plugin version the same as your standalone (daemon)?

Both versions of standalone and octane plugin are the same.

Do i need to have 2 octane cinema 4d plugins for network rendering to work?

No, you only need the plugin on the master... the slaves only need the OR standalone.

Hi PiotrAdamczyk,
that's weird :roll:
Here is a link about Octane net rendering inside c4d:
https://docs.otoy.com/manuals/products/ ... rendering/
and here is about logging for sending back to us of some log files, in order to better understand what is going on with your particular setup:

thanks, it was a firewall issue, right now i have 3.02 standalone installed but i get the "invalid version" error.

Is it possible that its becouse i'm using 3.03 cinema4d plugin version?

Octane standalone sees all of my slave gpus

Hi PiotrAdamczyk,
with c4dOctane v3.03.3-R1 you must have installed Standalone v3.03.3 on the slaves to match the same version.

The problem was with firewall blocking my other PC, i was also using the latest standalone version from the downloads page and not from the forum's thread you posted, thanks for the help guys.
