2021.1.6 (R5) materials are black in viewport

Whenever I apply an octane material, that object turns automatically black. Looks OK in render, but pre black in viewport. I also tried refreshing the material thumbnail but no luck. I reverted back to (R4) and everything works fine.

Same! I had to switch everything to cinema 4d materials for hardware render to not have black textures.

It was a temporary issue because of latest revisions on preview mechanisms. Download the newer build.

Hay aoktar, thanks for you answer. Still the same bug with 2021.1.6(R6) in Cinema 4D R26.013. In 2023.0.0 it's fixed though.
Thanks

Strange, it should be same on both. Can you confirm you're using tha latest with 26 too? Also try to create new material to check how it works.

Sure, hereby attach a screenshot of a new geo with new material applied with (R6) in R26.
In case it helps, I actually see the sphere white for 1sec or even less, and then it turns black.
