December 31, 2025 - Alongside these releases, OTOY shared a preview of Octane 2027, and the direction is clear. Real-time neural rendering, render-to-splat workflows, 4D Gaussian Splats, generative PBR materials, wave optics, anime and sketch rendering, procedural volumes, deeper USD integration, and Python APIs all point toward a future where rendering expands beyond frames into fully portable neural media. 2025 laid the groundwork. 2026 puts it in artists’ hands.

Testing in this 2026 build and I'm not getting a crash when using the ROPs dropdown.
