OTOY Forums

does anyone know how to get rid of this? I have looked everywhere... I believe this is something I caused a very long time ago but I cannot find where to fix it - its persists through every install/update of the plugin as well as modo.

Modo->Preferences->Octane->delete the OCIO Config Filename, or delete your Modo.CFG file, or edit it and delete the user.value oc_ocioConfigFile.

Thanks

thank you!

spoke to soon - I deleted modo cfg file, uninstalled and deleted any remaining octane files (stand alone and plugin), went into the modo cfg, deleted the one line that matched, this error refuses to go away. its not hurting anything, just annoying. I am willing to delete everything - all versions of modo and octane, but I suspect there is a file somewhere that I am not finding - any ideas?

Is it possible that you have the OCIO environment variable set on your PC?

it's possible but I am not familiar this at all so it would have been by accident - how can I check? I think this was the result of me following a tutorial on how to set up aces for C4D a long time ago, not realizing that I didn't need to do that in the more recent version of the Modo plugin.

To check for an environment variable

1. Click start and type "system environment variables" and click to open the window
2. Click environment variables
3. Look in both the USER and SYSTEM variables for anything with OCIO in the name, then select and delete them

I am not seeing anything there... should a specific file be showing in this box? am I missing a file that is somehow not being created on install?

It is possible that the setting has been applied and remembered at the Octane end (not the Modo plugin side) - as a result of an earlier version of the plugin which set OCIO is a different fashion. Try deleting the folders starting with a "{" in C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Roaming\OctaneRender.
