Hi,
I am having some problems with Octane for Cinema4D 2023.
I use a MacBook Pro M2 Max with Ventura installed.
These are the two issues:
-Textures and materials previews are not visible on node editor.
-Cinema 4D crashes when I close Live viewer.
Do anybody has the same issue?

Hi,
about node editor previews, you need to go to c4doctane Setting/Nodes, and disable the New style option, or material preview doesn't work in node editor: About crash after closing Live View, in general, it happens if you have previously installed a XB (beta) version, please close c4d, then try to delete the oct.dat file, at the following path, the c4doctane preferences will be reset to default, and a new oct.dat file will be created on next c4d start:
/Users/UserName/Library/Preferences/Maxon/Maxon Cinema 4D R2X_XXXXXXX/prefs/oct.dat
If not enough, please delete any c4d custom layout with c4doctane panels inside, and rebuild them from scratch.
ciao,
Beppe

Grazie Mille!
I nodi funzionano ma continua a crashare ancora anche seguendo le tue idicazioni.
Non si se è un problema della mia versione di cinema 4d (2023.2.2)

Hi,
this error message is expected, you need to allow the c4doctane plugin and library in System Preferences/Security and Privacy panel, and restart C4D a couple of times:

Then go to c4d menu Extensions/Console, (Shift+F10), and share a complete screenshot of the panel, or copy paste the default console output in your answer, thanks.
Please, also share a screenshot like this one, that shows both the c4doctane directory opened, and the entire installation path, thanks:

Ciao Beppe,
I have seen the message but I can't reply to that message.
I have done the system profile but I can't find a way to send you the zip file.
