Can anyone in simple layman's terms tell me how to get the plugins Network Render to work? Please, please, pretty please?

My setup:
Old system, 2xGTX670, cpu i7 620
New system GTX 1080 (8GB), cpu i7 6800K

Normal home network

Thanks,

Thanks Paul.

Okay, the plugin by itself is not enough, I get that. What I'm fuzzy on is if you need a registered copy of Octane itself on both machines...or just the slave system?

Hi Sam

Your master PC will need an OctaneRender Standalone and OctaneRender for Poser license. And the slave PC will need another OctaneRender Standalone license. A subscription license rather than full license on the slave should work.
