What's the best training site/course for switching to C4D and Octane?
For actually learning the right way that everything works, it’s hard to beat Cineversity, which is Maxon’s own training platform. It can be dry but at least it’s not full of mistakes and guesses like a lot of stuff out there. Maxon also has several YouTube channels where they put out free stuff. The Maxon Training Team is good for specific topics and the NAB talks are great for actual creative applications, once you have a bit of the fundamentals under you. More on reddit.com

Real-time Rendering: Can I render photorealistic environments in real-time gameplay?
Not yet. Today, OctaneRender can upgrade the quality of environments and objects; however, real-time rendering in Play or Game Mode still relies on Unity’s renderer. OTOY’s real-time path-tracing engine Brigade will be integrated into Octane, resulting in a vast improvement both in scene load times and dynamic, real-time, path-traced rendering.

r/Cinema4D on Reddit: Is Octane Render Dying?
November 8, 2023 -
I actually had no idea there was a new version of the plugin available until I saw a YouTube tutorial recommendation pop up. There's a lot of really great new features in this new version so it surprised me the last update on the site and YouTube page was from April.
It does get a little concerning after awhile that there's just not enough support and innovation for Octane and ultimately they're just letting it die. Programs like Unreal, Blender, and Redshift are updating regularly, and Cinema 4D itself was falling behind but feels like its really been stepping it up lately. Octane feels very far behind in terms regular innovation or even just enthusiasm for their product.
There's a lot of emphasis in the 3D world of "learn every single program inside and out and learn it yesterday" but some of us don't have the time or Adderall habit to do that. Octane has a lot going for it still and is still one of the most user friendly renderers. I would like to keep using it and I don't want to see it languish.
But am I worrying about nothing? How many of you are still using it versus making the switch to something else?

Its still a heater of a render engine! Since maxon acquired redshift though, it's going to make RS part of MOST workflows. The benefit though, theyre VERY similar so if you learn one, it doesnt take much to switch over.

Epic J Creations - Basic Overview of Octane Render. Is it right for you?
This is a lot less space RAM to use for holding my scene for rendering. This means octane won't be able to render as big of a scene since it doesn't have as much VRAM. This all said Octane is very efficient with its storage of VRAM, as I found that Octane could hold the same amount of Geometry and scene data as Arnold while using almost half as much RAM.
