Nothing in Live Window - New User

Hi,

I've just installed Cinema 4D and Octane but nothing is showing up in the live viewer.

I followed the docs for the quick startup render, created a folder called plugins in the program directory, put the c4doctane folder in there, and now I see the Octane menu bar OK in the program, but nothing is showing up. I can see all the options to add an Octane light, camera, etc.

The docs say that I should get a prompt on starting C4D asking for my password etc, but this didn't come up so I'm guessing it's just not seeing the plugin correctly.

Can anyone offer some advice please? I bet it's something really silly, it's the first time I've used C4D so highly likely :)

Cheers.

I should just add that I've downloaded and opened the first sample scene so there are things in the scene OK.
