Octane VR for Blender version & latest stable builds

Hi, I found out that my OctaneVR version has some bugs that were patched in the last stable version, but the same version of Octane Server VR isn't available anywhere.
OctaneVR available: Blender for Octane - 11.13 - Octane Server VR - 11.13
Last stable versions: Blender for Octane - 11.20 - Octane Server - 11.20
Can I download the "regular" version in the releases forum and use it with my octaneVR license? (
viewforum.php?f=113 )
Thanks in advance. Looking forward to working with this amazing software.

Sorry I have no access to make changes in user main download area, so I rely on other guys doing it after I release every new version. And I have definitely given them the links to 11.20 VR right after 11.20 was released... So it must be there...
I've just checked, and I see the 11.20 VR links in user download area when BlenderVR is selected... Are you not able to download from them? Can you describe exactly what happens?..

Hi, thank you for your answer!
I was about to post about my problem yesterday (octaneserver crashing by itself) only to find out that it probably got fixed in a newer version, as I saw that you told someone their version was too old.
Unfortunately the last stable build doesn't show up, and I saw that someone else can't see that version as well (and sees my same version). In this thread to be exact, the last post:
viewtopic.php?f=32&t=57883&hilit=octanevr&start=10
I actually can see 11.20 in the drop-down but I somehow can't see the download link. I'm attaching also a pic of what shows up when I choose the 11.20 version in the dropdown.
I'll show you my specs and attach a screenshot of what I see in my download page as of now.
Specs/software:
A. Operating System: Windows 10 pro
B. Graphics Card: Nvidia geforce gtx 965m
C. 16gb ram
D. Graphics Card drivers 376.33
E. OctaneRender Standalone version: 3.03.4
F. OctaneRender plugin version: 3.04.5 - 11.13
Thank you for your quick reply, it's very appreciated.

Yes, I see, you definitely have no 11.20 VR download links in the download area. But I can see them, and this is weird...
There is definitely something wrong with these links publishing. But it is beyond my control as I said, I can't fix it 'cause I have no access to this area...

Hi Jim, yes, there's definitely something wrong on the links page. It's probably the reason why some people keep complaining about bugs that you have already fixed. I'll try to forward this discussion to the support. and see what they say.
Thank you for your replies!

Hi, I have the same problem, already notified support about it multiple times in Nov/Dec. All I've heard back is "it's coming soon"

Just chiming in to let you know I am having this problem as well.
I also contacted Otoy about this, but no reply yet.

Hi, I just received a reply from support with the right link. I obviously can't provide the link, but hopefully all of you guys should get it too soon. It doesn't appear to be an easy problem to fix, though (JimStar can see the links).
When you write to support be careful to ask for both links. I did not write that I couldn't download both, and only got the link for the Blender for OctaneRender Installer.
If anyone else has this problem please leave a line here, so that they can find out what causes it and hopefully fix it soon.
