OTOY Forums

I've been trying for 2 days to get octane to work with C4D.
I've tried putting Octanex in plugins folder, in preferences plugins folder, Installing C4D with the maxon app, with the offline installer.

Without enabling Rosetta my octane doesn't show up anywhere.
When I enable Rosetta C4D doesn't open, just crashes "Cinema 4D: Application Error"

Anybody else had this issue and resolved it? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
please remove the second c4doctane folder in /Users/ggordillo/Library/Preferences/Maxon/Maxon Cinema 4D R25_EBA43BEE/plugins/, one c4doctane folder is more than enough.

Please note that, if Open with Rosetta option is enabled in C4D, you cannot work with other native plugins, like X-Particles or RedSHift, and you need to install only non-native plugins, along with C4D-OctaneX-PR13.

A native M1 c4doctane version is expected with the upcoming 2022.1 SDK.

ciao,
Beppe
