"Octane version" prompt after migrating from Octane4 to 2021

Hey Paul,
small little annoyance I get everytime I just save my scene in the lates plugin. I've created the scene with Octane 4 and modo 13. Now I'm on the latest plugin also with modo 13. Is there anyway to get rid of this?
Thanks

Hi. Can you post a sample scene where this error occurs please?
Thanks
Paul

Hi. I do not get the error you have reported when I load that scene. May I suggest deleting your Modo*.CFG file and see if that resolves the issue.
Thanks
Paul

Same here.

That's because it happens when you SAVE the scene, not LOAD...

I believe this is happening because the Render item is called "licie" in the Shader Tree. I couldn't see how the Render item could be renamed. Are you able to explain how you renamed the Render item please?
Thanks
Paul

Good catch. You can rename the render item by selecting it and using this command:
This will fix it, although the plugin's internal commands should be getting the render item via an SDK method rather than relying on the name to be "Render"

Thanks - for the time being, the Render item will need to be called "Render". Renaming it to anything will result in an error.
Thanks

hey guys.
sorry for the delayed answer on my side.
Thanks for the workaround, this is good enough.
@face_off I don't even remember when and how I changed that Render Item during my project.
cheers.
