Hey guys,

i downloaded some blend files from blendswap. There are some great cars on that site but octane
won't open when i try to render these. Are these projects to large or rather to advanced?

I use latest svn build and exporter 1.10.
I had to unpack the textures into files and set absolute path in blender settings because the exporter stops if it not find textures.
It takes 250 MB vram, so not a problem with your card.

Thank you mib it works right now but i had to remove the textures. How did you do it?
You said you set a relative path to the textures? how can i do this when they are packed
into the blend file?

No, absolute path, you find both in the file menu.
It is good to set absolute path in the user preferences, file menu with unmark "Relative Path"
