Issue:

After some hits at render button in Live Viewer (green octane logo), octane stop working and won't render anymore, even if i close the project or change it, all i can do is restart Cinema 4d.
Sometimes when this occur Cinema 4D stop working and i need to close with task manager.
I have 2 gpu's, i try one gpu each time and still get this issue.

The issue seem appear frequently in Live Viewer.

P.S. This issue has been discussed with aoktar on facebook octane group, and it told me the problem can be 1080 related. I have post this bug here just to make it officially on otoy forums.

Why do you repeately send scene? Asked for my curiosity.

Don't know, bugreport rules told me to send bugreport.zip and scene.zip , that's all!

LOL:)
I did not mean that. Why do you press so often to restart button?

Restart button sometimes don't render new modeled object, new objects ,moved objects, update textures, or other things, so i prefer to "send scene button"
I have always work like that with my GTX 970 and everything is working fine, unless i get GTX 1080.

Obviously i don't work like the step i made to reproduce the bug. The steps i write above is only for reproduce the bug.

Normal workflow is to hit "send scene" button, preview, stop octane(because working with octane is laggy in viewport), and continue working, then when i'm done (like modeling,texturing,lighting etc) i re-hit "send scene" button... unless i finish the scene or somelese..
The problem is about the "send scene" button hit muliple times in the range of time i'm working, like 20 min for example. and the issue appears.
The steps i write above is to make this issue appears in fast times to troubleshoot the problem.

It will update on next click or action always if does not do it in first click. There is a reason to don't update on every clicks. It just try to avoid to call refreshes very frequently.
