Are any of you able to see textures in the viewport?

Before anyone asks, I'm using the latest nvidia studio drivers on my 4090 and the latest octane version (2022.1 r6) on Cinema 2023.1.3. It's been this way for so long I just assumed that there was an incompatibility with octane and the viewport so I just turned off the textures in the viewport since otherwise it would be completely black. I feel like i'm back in the 90's working this way. I've found a bunch of people with this issue going back many years but I don't see any solution. It's not in the documentation that I can find either. Even asking chat GPT told me to ask you guys.

EDIT: Why have a "check for latest version" option if it doesn't actually check for the latest version? I manually updated to 2022.1 r10 and it didn't fix the issue.

Hi,
everything is working as expected here:

Also Material preview seems not updated.

Please close c4d, then try to delete the oct.dat file, at the following path:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\MAXON\Cinema4D-RXX_random_code\prefs\oct.dat

A new oct.dat file will be created on next c4d start, and the c4doctane preferences will be reset to default.

ciao,
Beppe
