Random seeming crashes with C4D Character Rig

Hi there, working on a scene with a character rigged with the C4D character rig. Doing some really simple stuff in Octane and it generally crashes on first render.

I have tried copy/pasting the elements into a new scene, separately and together - this tends to work the first time, and I can get some successful renders out of it, but when re-opening any of these new scenes, they begin to crash again.

Any ideas? Thanks!

A. Windows 10 10.019041
B. GTX 2080 Super
C. 32GB ram
D. Geforce
E. Standalone 2020.1.5
F. Octane for C4D 2020.1.5
G Cinema 4D 2020.057 Studio
H. Attached Scene (will attach in follow up post)
I. Attached bugreport

hi there, thanks for the reply.

here's the log from octane - the scene crashes as soon as i try to render in the octane preview window or render to picture viewer

Problem is about sketch material, probably have a gradient. It's crashing. Please delete it

ah deleting that shader has made things a lot more stable, thanks!

so a material in the project can have an effect even if it's not applied to anything in the scene?
