Rhino plugin / material tab not showing

Hi Hope you can help,

It’s been a long old day, apologies if I’m making any silly errors.

I’m having issues getting the Rhino Octane plugin to work. I’m running Octane standalone 3.03.3 with rhino 3.01.1 installed. I made the error of installing this without removing the demo and have since done a system restore and reinstalled. Both are licenced and registered. I’m also running the latest rhino 5 (Version 5 SR13 64-bit)
The issue I have is I’m not seeing the materials tab, I can add an octane material but i thought the tab floated with the main UI?

Please can you point me in the right direction.

Cheers!

Hi - did you install the demo via the .RHI installer, or the old .EXE installer?

Try running Rhino, then Tools->Options->Plugins->OctaneRender for Rhino->Properties. Then open that filename folder in Explorer and delete all occurences of OctaneRender. Then restart Rhino and re-install the latest version from viewforum.php?f=41

Also - pls use that forum for any questions you have - this is the OctaneVR forum.

Thanks

Paul
