Hi,
Finally, I was able to reproduce this problem here due to a crash on exit on Linux. After some tests, I’ve found a possible workaround that will be included in the next RS 3.0 build to hopefully try to fix this issue.
Thanks,
-Juanjo

ocalafIf you are rendering in the RenderView check the IPR settings in the ROP node. By default the IPR rendering resolution is half the camera resolution, but you can disable or adjust this option there.
I'm trying to render 1080x1080 but I'm just getting 540x540 on the output? Any help fixing that? I was enjoying a trial and now I've just activated my new recent license for Redshift but I can't render square frames at 1080
Thanks,

I've seen this problem before in one of my Windows wokstation. At least in my case, the issue has been fixed setting the HOUDINI_ACCESS_METHOD environment variable to 2
You should try to add this line to your houdini.env file:
HOUDINI_ACCESS_METHOD = 2

Will Octane 3 support opencl on Mac osx ?
Yes, in theory once the OpenCL kernel is available it should work with the Mac AMD GPUs.

The 15.0.244 plugin build should work in this version of H15. If it can't find the Octane.dll, the problem can be that the PATH variable in the houdini.env file is not configured properly. Can you please verify it?
https://docs.otoy.com/Houdini/?page_id=39 [docs.otoy.com]
The problem can be also that your system don't have the Visual C++ 2012 redistributable package installed:

Hi, is there any working demo for Production Build on the Windows?
Preferably for the latest one (houdini-15.0.313-win64-vc11)
I tried Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_15.0.244_Win64 with production build 15.0.244.16 but it throws dll error (can't load c:\Users\petr.zloty\Octane\Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_15.0.244_Win64\bin\octane.dll)
So it didn't work for me.

Ahh, doesn't Centos7 have the glut lib installed by default? … weird, you need to install it. I think that this command should be enough (as root user):
yum install freeglut

And other test, only to be sure, this is a build compiled for CentOS 6.7 using the glibc 1.12 version. Can you please test it?

The about window I will check after boot again to Linux, now I'm on Mac. But strange is that there is no option visible in the network view / out = I can't add the octane render node via TAB key - there is no octane listed. It is listed only in top menu but there is giving me the error window. Ufff
This is the same problem, you don't have the Octane ROP in /out because the plugin is not loaded. Are you sure that you have installed the H15.0.224 plugin version?
Anyway I am going to install a fresh Centos 7 here to test the plugin in the same system that you have. At least in Ubuntu it works fine.

Weird. If you can see the shelf icons it is sure that Houdini can find the plugin folder, so the problem is not in the houdini.env file … but it can't load the plugin.
What can you see in the plugin “about” window?

I am testing in Ubuntu 14.04 the demo version for Linux and it works fine with all my unit tests. I am using the 2.24.2.0 plugin for H15.0.244 (of course over the Houdini 15.0.244.16 version), extracted from the file posted few days ago:
https://render.otoy.com/plugindownloads/0e/41/e8/bd/Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_Linux_DEMO.zip [render.otoy.com]
As far I know, the plugin should work on CentOS 7 without problems. Do you know if the Standalone is working fine in your Linux workstation?

Hello Juan, I tried now your Octane Linux demo, but I am getting the same error as before with the OS X version before you compiled it again. So correctly setup houdini.env to my folder, in Houdini in the menu I click Create Render Node Octane a bang - the error window jumps right at me. I am on CentOS 7 with latest production build of Houdini 15.0.244.16. Can you please check it if the Linux version you posted few days ago is really working for you? I am now deciding to switch from OS X to CentOS due to Octane, but unfortunatelly your demo is not working. Let me know please. Thanks…
Sure. I think that I had checked the demo build before upload it, but I will test it again tomorrow as soon as I arrive to my office. Is the Octane ROP node working, or you get also an error after adding it? … the Linux version should work without problems, a lot of users are working with it.

Working in therms that I was able to create octane render node. A lot of things makes my Houdini to hang onto the beachball. Simple scene - imported low rez mesh, created octane vopnet and diffuse material applyied to this obj. Created render targert and camera. Trying to render to mplay = Houdini hang, beachball, neverending. I saw this also when trying to use texture as environemnt instead the daylight. So in my case - octane render demo = absolutelly unusable on OS X. Mabe on different platforms it runs well, but on 10.11.1 with latest production built Houdini it is a disaster. And I was so looking forward to it…
Weird, here in my system with 10.10 the plugin pass all my unit tests, and I have not seen this kind o problems. Anyway I need to test the plugin in deep under 10.11.
Do you know if the Standalone or other Octane plugins are working fine in your computer? … to be honest, few people is testing the plugin under OSX (I suppose that currently the lack of Macs with NVIDIA GPUs is one of the issues with Octane and OSX), so I don't have a lot of reports about the OSX problems.
If you have some free time to make some tests, report to me the scenes with problems, the logs after the crashes and so on, I will be happy trying to fix the plugin OSX issues. Remember that the plugin is currently in beta
