Hi all,

I'm sorry to have to inform you that due to me and phil both having flu,
we cannot finish the beta which was supposed to be released this weekend.

I hope you all understand and we will release it early next week.
So that's just a few days patience...

The beta is radically different from the v0.8x demo versions, with a finished UI design and some often asked features :)

On the bright side, i'm happy to inform that due to the highly successfull license pre-ordering,
we will be doubling the development team in about 4 weeks.

Yours,
Radiance

Due to your hard work, I think we can wait few more days.
Alpha is already amazing.
Beta will be awesome.
Octane is going to be the killer rendering soft of the year.

I can't help but think that this illness is due at least in part to the fact that you have been pushing pretty hard for months on Octane and its starting to catch up with you. Health > Octane. Please take your time and get well. Those of us who value your work will still be here.

Hey,

Don't worry it's just influenza... it's a virus :)

Debug yourself before you debug the beta.
