I had a TONNE of headaches trying to install this but going to the forums and going to Board Index > Octane Licensed Customer Forums > Plugin Discussion/Support > Blender > Releases and then downloading a version with [STABLE] will make it easier.
At first, I was excited when I saw this news on the website, but then I got disappointed. A day has passed, and I still haven't figured out where the path to OctaneDB disappeared from the settings, and my library just vanished. So, I won't be deleting the old version for now. Btw you are doing gret job, because there isn't much information for beginners regarding Blender + Octane
I have been using Octane for more than 6 years with C4D, having switched to blender in the past 2 years it's awesome to see continued development of Octane for Blender. As much as I love cycles, certain scenes really benefit being rendered with Octane, especially when it comes to displacements or SSS. Thanks for sharing and look forward for the addon version to be out of beta
I was actually planning on testing this with the older version. Still wonder what was different in their custom blender build. 8 had the feeling it was just an addon
Im using the 29.14 octane server , and have activated it but uh , there is something wrong with the render engine , it shows pitch black out of my renders , any idea how to fix that?
Still find it weird they use kernel settings as nodes and not as proper render settings. Is the engine now also setup properly? By that I mean, I prior versions, also nodes which are not related to octane would show up in the node add menu. The way they implemented octane render as an engine is not done correctly
Okay it's time to try this out. I've been itching to test out Octane. So now that you can run Octane on the "vanilla" version of Blender, can you run both Octane and Cycles in one installation of Blender I would love of it if this is the case?
hello 1 Polygon. just found your page . love it!!!! I have a question for you. I have the octane add on on my blender. Its been working correctly, but when I render a animation in octane after a few frames the animation would just stop. I did a quick render animation of png files and after it would hit a random Png number it would just Stop going to the next render on the animation timeline. any suggestions? my graphics card is up to date and all. thanks
Uh Thanks for that info! I didn't know we can use 4.1 now. In the 4.0 version setmaterial does not work with octane. Hope it's fixed in the latest version.
@@1polygonewithme Well, I tried the newest version and I couldn't even activate the server. Whenever I try that, the server will just quit. So I have changed back to 4.0 and decide to wait for a stable release of 4.1/2..
@@1polygonewithme thankyou! For some reason my edit mesh overlays stopped working I uninstalled the plugin and it started working! Gonna stick to the standalone for now! Have a good day 😊
hey patrick i want your help , my blender octaen is lagging so much from some weeks, when ever i bring some image textures my blender octane starts lagging and it becomes very slow even if adjust any value it lags first and then updates it , and all this is happening onlt fromn some weeks not from the beginning when i first downloaded , all this is happening in render mode only no matter what kernel is used my pc specs rtx 3060 12 gb 16 gb ram i7 13 gen
With the older custom blender build, 8 saw that error as well. Something perhaps going wrong with that small little network app we need to run. For me closing and restarting blender octane helped
First off - I love Octane. I installed the 4.1 plugin, tested an interior. Viewport very fast, less than 2 mins 250 samples with denoiser. Render took 16 mins to do 9 samples. WTF! I found the denoiser has options, so I switched to open image denoiser, 2k with 500 samples now took less than 7mins. The Octane AI denoiser is not working for me, wont be using that again.
Ya that's happ to me on my old laptop top 1050ti I didn't have enough resources on my system and the denoiser doesn't work as good as blender default denoiser... But on my new desktop 4080 super the denoiser is ok no problems really quick
There's nowhere near enough information online for Blender Octane, so it's nice to see someone go through the entire installation process.
I'm SHOCKED at how good the integration is. Some people worked HARD on this.
Is it hard to make an add-on for Blender
@@1polygonewithme Not with ChatGPT or Claude. I’ve made a series of tools that we need for work. Couldn’t accomplish that before AI
Thanks for sharing your experience!

Hey! I have a question 🙋
Do you think standalone octane is better then using plugin?
Yes because at the moment the add-on is in beta we're talking about beta versus a full release once the app gets better then I will switch
@@1polygonewithme thankyou! For some reason my edit mesh overlays stopped working I uninstalled the plugin and it started working! Gonna stick to the standalone for now! Have a good day 😊

so octand for blender have free version with no watermark ?
Does Octane Blender have watermark? #octanerender #octaneblender
when i switch to render view it says "Final render or other renderer viewport is active! please turn off them and try again". how do i fix it?
With the older custom blender build, 8 saw that error as well. Something perhaps going wrong with that small little network app we need to run. For me closing and restarting blender octane helped
When octane for amd😭
I hope soon
Octane render isn't 60 dollars a month it's 20 and well worth the money.
Go for you 🤓👍
Ya I mean to say c4d plus Octane but I'm not going to reupload the video to fix it sorry 🤭🙏🙏

it's impossible to register at their website. Thanks anyways.
What exactly do you mean did you have issues
Is it faster than cycles?
Is Octane FASTER than Cycles? #octanerender #octaneblender #blender3d
it crashes with 4.2
Ya I have some say that well it's made for 4.1 so I suggest 🤔 using that tel 4.2 is ready 👍👍🤓
First!
Cinema 4d users have had this since there was the prime version 😂
Blender engine better than octane million times and free
