This makes it nearly impossible to develop materials, test updated textures and overall create anything since everytime we make any subtle change to any texture we have to reload the entire scene. I myself update textures 100s of times per hour when working on assets and non-responsive Reload button is very bad for the workflow.

Example here:


I tested the same behavior in C4D 2024.5.1 + Octane 2023.1.1 and there it works perfectly. Each Reload button press promptly refreshes the scene.

Edit: Also tested on other machines with the same version of C4D and Octane I have on my machine (C4D 2025.0.2 + Octane 2024.1-[R3]) and it's also broken and the Reload button won't refresh the Live Viewer.

Hi,
sorry but I cannot reproduce this issue with C4D 2025.0.2 and c4doctane 2024.1-R3, in both Windows and macOS.

The Reload button is working as expected here in both Node Editor and Live View.

Could you share an example scene with assets that shows the issue?

If yes, please send me a link via Private Message.

It seems you are correct.

Based on the results of your testing we've reinstalled and restarted everything and you were right, the issue disappeared on both machines we tested yesterday. I'll keep close eye on this during this week, we expect to make many assets in the following days and if the issue won't appear again then it had to be something wrong on our end, not with C4D or Octane.

Thanks for the quick response!

Ok, great, keep us informed.

Happy GPU rendering!
