Guess I'll have to post some results soon. Great feature and makes up for my no longer being able to use my 260 card.Īnd as an added bonus, this thread seems to have led to our being granted our own Octane category. The project has never been built and this sketch is all that is left from his idea.

Now that I've got Octane back I can render to my hearts content and hardly ever hear the GPU fans kick in and with render priority set to medium, I feel no lag in my display. To Octane Render this beautiful hand drawn Weekend House by Los Angeles mid-century architect Craig Ellwood in today’s standards. My demo timed out and I soon found that just setting an environment in Rhino Render Preview mode looked fine for screenshots and didn't seem to load up my computer. I also re-examined NEON and found that I could get surprisingly good results there and that price is certainly within any Rhino users means but the roaring fans and CPU load was much the same. This is cause of Octane render version if you are using octane 3.07 you will have this problem., you should upgrade it to octane 4.0 because your Video Card newer than octane version. The 'early adopter' price was reasonable but the thing that stopped me was the load it seemed to put on my CPU and cooling. In the interim of figuring this all out, I used a 15 day demo of FluidRay for my vis and renders, and was pretty impressed with it and almost bought a copy. Nothing like some ‘eye candy’ to open those wallets and get feedback and review. Not to mention keeping my clients engaged and involved (like sending checks!). Anyway, I had forgotten how much the ease and speed on Octane kept me engaged in my projects by being able to easily take ‘sneak previews’ along the way.

I read on the Otoy site that you don’t need Standalone installed but do need a license number to verify the plugin but I was never asked for the Standalone number so I guess it found what it needed which seemed to be the gist of the error messages. Perhaps the plugin needed the Standalone re-installed to verify the license of the Standalone before associating the plugin. 0-devel OpenGL shading language version string: 1.

Thanks Paul for you help and a wonderful plugin. EDIT: i found the post button in the demo discussion forum but not in the one for people with licenses, but since i have. Links: Twitter - llennoco22 A custom node group like FNShaders Cycles, but for Octane Render Engine.
