The plugin requires OctaneRender Standalone Edition to be installed and activated. The Standalone Edition does not need to be the same Octane version as the plugin - since they operate separately.
The plugin supports Carrara 8/8.5 Pro or Standard, 64 or 32 bit for Windows.
OctaneRender for Carrara is available for the following operating systems:
The OctaneRender for Carrara plugin uses the Microsoft .Net 4.5 or greater framework.
Note: It is highly recommended that you use a 64 bit addition of Carrara because it can take a lot of memory to load scenes into Octane.
OctaneRender requires a Nvidia driver supporting CUDA 5.5 (http://www/nvidia.com/download/index.aspx?).
