Can't network render now [SOLVED]

Ok got an old problem come back which I can't believe I have to post about. I updated Octane for 3dsmax to the latest version, but now I cannot network render because my MAX plugin is more up to date than the STANDALONE plugin, so they won't talk to each other. The max plugin is based off 3.05.4.29, and the standalone is only 3.05.3 !! So I am dead in the water. I went to the website to make sure there is not a standalone version which is 3.05.4, but nothing. Tom Glimps ?

Hi richardyarlett,
Last Octane Max plugin 4.29 version is SDK 3.05 and last daemon is SDK 3.05.3
you should use 4.29 with daemon:

Correct. Yes you are right
I downloaded the older 3.05 standalone, and not the 3.05.03 listed as the latest version of your site. You guys have to be careful to PAIR UP the versions, and not get further ahead. If you move from 3.05 to 3.05.3, make sure you keep the older 3.05 listed for download, if the max plugin needs that to network render. I know you can get away with it on a single machine, but it seems the network daemon looks VERY specifically for the same exact version. So that extra ".3" makes a big difference.
Thanks !
