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

Yes yes yes, Juan you are the King. It is working. Thanks a lot

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.

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?

The problem can be also that your system don't have the Visual C++ 2012 redistributable package installed:

Thanks,
it was the PATH variable, I had there some paths with spaces, I changed apostrophes to this:
PATH = cUsers/petr.zloty/Octane/Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_15.0.244_Win64/bin;“$PATH” and it's working now.

Huge news for the little guys. If it could be used with Indie then it would be a game changer.

Where can i get DEMO version (WIN64) for latest production build? It seems like there is only 15.0.179 Demo on OTOY, and it doesn't work. So i can't even try this Render before buy.

Currently there are demo builds for the production releases H14.0.474 and H15.0.244:
https://render.otoy.com/plugindownloads/47/fd/32/6e/Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_Windows_DEMO.zip [render.otoy.com]
https://render.otoy.com/plugindownloads/05/60/a7/8e/Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_OSX_DEMO.zip [render.otoy.com]
https://render.otoy.com/plugindownloads/0e/41/e8/bd/Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_Linux_DEMO.zip [render.otoy.com]

I will try to update these demo build for the last production release ASAP, and send these links to the Otoy web team to update the links.

Thanks,

Wow! Thanks! In download section on OTOY site there are archive with older versions only.

Hello! I managed to get it to work (changing ENV file). So i bought this nice plugin.
The problem is the same - there are no 15.0.244 version of comercial plugin on OTOY website. What should i do to get it?

Please, check the plugin forum at the Octane site. Usually all the last updates are available first in the Release subforum:
https://render.otoy.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=102 [render.otoy.com]

This is the plugin link for the beta release 2.24.2.0 for H15 15.0.313 (all platforms), but you have also in the forum links for older versions:
https://render.otoy.com/customerdownloads/plugins/42/02/d7/95/Octane_2.24.2.0_Houdini_15.0.313.zip [render.otoy.com]

The first alpha build of the Octane 3 plugin will be also available in the forum soon

-Juanjo

Does anyone know if this will work with Houdini Indie? I'm guessing not…

Currently the Indie version doesn't support external render engines.

-Juanjo

Will Octane 3 support opencl on Mac osx ?

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.

-Juanjo

The first alpha build of the Octane 3 plugin for Houdini has been released!
