Hi,

I have been having a problem on using Octane Free Tier Blender Version.
It shows “No available CUDA GPUs on Server” but I have 1070 ti. Interestingly, the Octane Standalone even recognizes it.

You can see the illustration problem and proof of the existing of a GPU here:

Hi,
you need an Nvidia driver greater than 456.38 and a new cuDNN library, to be able to use latest Octane versions.

Please download and install 2020.2 Standalone.
https://render.otoy.com/downloads/e2/7e ... _2_win.exe

At first start, you will be asked to press the Download button, to automatically install a new cuDNN library to run it correctly:

Then please download and run octanebench 2020.1.5, and share a complete screenshot of the result, thanks:

Hi,

Thanks for the response.
Why are there so many separate installs?

Anyhow,

RE: Nvidia driver greater than 456.38
Done

RE:new cuDNN library, to be able to use latest Octane versions./
Yes, I have the cudnn_8_04

RE: Please download and install 2020.2 Standalone.
Done.

RE: octanebench 2020.1.5
Done. The octanebench recognizes my card.

With all that done, it still gives me the same problem.
"Octane: ERROR: no available CUDA GPUs on a server"

Is there a server app that I can check if it is connected or not?

Would you help me! I've got the same issue with Free Tier.. I've installed Octane Free Tier in Blender, DAZ 3D and it doesn't work.. Octane Benchmark works fine with 302 score of GPU. I have the newest laptop with RTX 3060 6gb, Latest NVIDIA driver 516, and CUDA v.11.7, latest Cudnn library .. and Octane still doesn't work.. :cry:
