Octane Render For Cinema 4d R17

Sep 29, 2018 - Living Room Interior Scene for Cinema 4D and Octane Render 3D. Created in Cinema 4D R17 and Octane Render 3.08 on GTX 980 4GB.

Edit on Aug 08, 2015: /edit Hi Devoted, Is this a tutorial suggestion? It reads differently. You might have more chances for answers in the Q&A forum. I’m happy to move it there. If there are any news, you might see it on the MAXON web-site first.

Developers and Testers are under NDA. People who know will not talk, people who talk will not know—as usual in such cases. All the best Sassi Signature Dr. Sassmannshausen Ph.D.

The only thing you have to worry about is your current video card. It really makes C4D super responsive and far more enjoyable and usable.

Personally I think Maxon will eventually have to move to a GPU based option or abandon rendering enhancements all together and just let a 3rd party provider fill that need, kinda like they did with particles. The speed increase really makes a huge difference.

At any rate you would have to wait until September to get it and if you have paying gigs the price of Octane will pay for itself long before that. Cheers Steve. I did go ahead and purchase it yesterday. I am pretty impressed so far. The renders just look more real. I am using the beta R16 version and haven’t had any issues yet but I am still in the testing stage. My GPU is the Nvidia K5000, I will probably add a Tesla K20 in a few months.

My main concern is rendering long animations with Octane. Have you done any long renders with Octane yet? Something like 1000 plus frames?

For long animations I have a 5 machine render farm I use with Team Render. It is very stable and I have never had a problem with days of continuous rendering. I am not sure if I would trust a GPU to render for days. XEON CPUs are designed to handle a constant heavy workload.

What is the longest animation you have rendered with Octane? Any issues with the GPU overheating? Thanks for the feedback - Devoted. Ok so I am officially jealous now. Really nice video card! My renders are pretty minimal in both length and complexity. Electrical installation calculations advanced 8th edition pdf. I do mainly motion graphics.

I have however spent considerable time on the OTOY C4D forum board. You should definitely check those out. The only time I have heard of overheating issues is with multiple Titan cards and no water cooling system. Also you should upgrade to the 2.14 beta version.

Much cleaner workflow. From what I understand the amount of Vram on the card is more of an issue than overheating. If I were you I would take one of your multi day renders and run it through Octane to see how it fairs.

Your card should come with heat monitoring software and you can set Octane to Medium so can do other work while it renders. You may be surprised days may turn into hours. I would be interested in the results. Cheers Steve. Showmill200 - 16 December 2014 03:49 AM Not sure about R17 but I just picked Octane up. It is an awesome piece of software.

Cheers Steve as far as i know octane does not support team render, so the gpu advantage is melted down fast.
