Spectral Cycles vs. Octane

Now let me also say this about Octane – OTOY as a company is frustrating AF. As I said above, the Octane for Blender implementation is ass backwards for sure. They’re been talking about turning it into an add-on but either this is incredibly low priority for them, or they just don’t know exactly how to do it. Their documentation is outdated for pretty much every single platform they support. They seem to be more focused on working on whatever excites them at the moment than to actually fix their damn code and make Octane production ready. Their support is kinda non-existent. And lastly…for me as a MacOS user, their support of the platform is not good at all, including that they no longer seem to support Octane for Blender for Metal on Intel machines (you know…like the Mac Pros which is exactly the type of Mac one would want to use for CG)!!!
