Hi guys,

I try to use the studio.lib4d and if I render on the main left view, it works but in the 3.06 Live viewer, it crashes.

can you try some studio preset to confirm please ?

Sad to say the Octane Studio Tools have never been very stable for me. On V2 they introduced a gamma/brightness shift I found impossible to solve, and on V3 they seem to introduce stability issues. I would suggest making your own lighting using only Octane shaders.

It's already been covered on this forum a few times already.

It's because the lighting kit is built using a lot of layered C4D shaders, which isn't the most efficient way of lighting. Since the latest Octane update the Lighting Kit has become unusable (that's a good thing as its the wrong way to do lighting in Octane).

Best thing is to swap out the planes for Octane area lights.
