My small company has four octane 4 licences with the C4D plug and a further 2 slave node licences. Each machine has a few 1080 cards installed.
As 2019 is out and stable now we wish to migrate to 2019 and the same ability to do maximum network rendering using all the available licences at night etc.
I cant work out what the path is - the shop is a confusing mess to be honest with all sorts of things to look out for that might mean buying the wrong thing, being limited to no network rendering or only 2 cards etc.
Any help appreciated. I wish the shop had an overhaul. Hate the year name system too - confusing for adobe and confusing here too.

Hi,
at the moment you need to go to the Shop page, Buy/Upgrade and purchase 4x All Access annual Enterprise extensions, 199€ each.
https://render.otoy.com/shop/upgrade.ph ... 45-UD1AOSE
In this way you will have 4x Enterprise 2019, and also 4x extra Slave nodes for Network rendering for one year.
Alternatively, you can wait for the new Shop page with new upgrading options, that should be ready for the end of this month.
ciao Beppe

Thanks for the reply - sounds like a plan to wait.

So Beppe, a quick follow up question...

If I have two Enterprise licenses, can I then use four slaves with only one license as a master? Or is it restricted to two per license?

Thank you.

Yes correct, if you have 2x Enterprise licenses with All Access extension, you can render with one Master and 3x Slaves, or two masters with one Slave each.
