I noticed that Octane has some problems with proper loading EXR file type

1. EXR is always copied to tex scene folder. It can't be used as link to orginal storage location as is with other file types. The same issue is with object/images loaded from the new Asset Browser.

2. Octane crash while dragging exr file from other aplication to filename dialog box

You are loading the exr file from your c4d preferences/tex folder. This folder is checked as part of c4d's file checking routine as if it was your project/tex folder. As far as c4d is concerned the exr file is already in your generic c4d tex folder and so doesn't need the full storage file path. Try adding this same file from your desktop and you will notice it now acts like other files.

Loading exr files from adobe bridge works fine with no crashing here
