hello all,
am i able to use more than one GPU with the demo? the option to add aditional gpus is greyed out and i'm wondering if that is why. if not, please advise on how i can make the rest of my cards available.
thanks,
-joe

As far as I know multi GPU is only supported for commercial license holders.

Hi,
The demo only supports one at the moment.
The upcoming 2.5 stable and it's demo to be released next week will support multi-gpu systems.

Very good news that 2.5 is around the corner.
Radiance, will the 2.5 demo also allow mesh lights?
I am asking because I was asked to do a Octane workshop and Octane is really fun because of the mesh lights

Ah cool. Thank you Roeland. I didn't check out the demo since I became a licensed customer

hi Joe, the octane demo supports one gpu as of the moment. A new version is in the works and the demo will be able to support multi gpu. These will be available very soon.
