Issue with Octane X

Hello,
I'm new to octane and for years I've been wanting to learn Octane render for C4D but haven't been able to cause I never had a windows with Nvidia GPU. I managed to download the latest Octane X and the standalone app seem to function alright and was able to render. However when I'm playing around in C4D, I realise the plugin was barely usable. The Material editor is always empty every time I try to edit a material, even the node editor was empty as well and the materials can't seem to be changed at all. I tried searching everywhere and couldn't figure out what's the issue at all.
Is there anyone having the same issue? Did you find any solution?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,
weird, are you sure to have installed the plugin correctly?

Please open c4d, 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 that shows both the c4doctane directory opened, and the entire installation path, thanks:

Note that you need to create and edit OctaneRender materials only.

ciao,
Beppe
