Good Render App. Documentation is poor.

Was a good app but since Ventura MAC OS update has stopped working entirely.

Incredibly fast and powerful

This is so fast and generating some really nice results already, even after 30 mins tinkering. Just follow the instructions people, it isn't that hard to install. And it is so worth it - I am absolutely blown away. Finally a fully working GPU renderer on the Mac.

In theory good; poor instructions, unclear naming and licensing issues

In theory this is a solid renderer.

Signed up for a the offer; had Octane X briefly working. The tried to actually use it for something and:

- Couldn't install Houdini plugin and not entirely sure if OctaneX supports plugins.
- Now the license appears locked to my laptop.
- Licensing and version names are confusing
- Lags behind Octane, non-X, releases (like I said naming is confusing). As of now 8 months without an update, and the next version will arrive sometime. Not something one could rely on for production.

Contacted support and they did get back, but by that stage had spend far too much time trying to get it to work.
