Let’s make this example, you are a Mac user, regular owner of Maxon C4D R19, payed much more than $700, and you have purchased a new Mac, or you want to upgrade your Mac to Catalina 10.15, or Big Sur 11. Posts: 44 Joined: Fri 7:57 am Location: Barcelona So, stability first, novelty waaaay second. If C4D & or Octane crashes non-stop my 8-hour workday turns into a 16-hour hell of constant reboots. I myself are more worried about stability rather than novelty. But the times are as they are, and the internet has turned us into anxious demanding clients. Maybe if Maxon & octane got together and decide launch dates, us users would have an "expected" release and availability schedule and would not be so eager. Also, Apple is not helping anyone with their own change of mind. Octane & you have been keeping up to date with Maxon's erratic way of launching software and modifying their architecture, rather than adding tools in upgrades. Having a direct line to the developer is a great service/tool and we, as users should learn how to deal and behave politely and humanly. don't get stressed, we customers/users should be handled by customer service and you be left in peace to develop without everyone nagging.We are offering IMO a very fair upgrade path to users who are on a 2+ year old version. I don’t think it’s fair to expect that we’re going to go back and update V4 multiple years beyond it’s release any more than we would V3 or V2. Note that if you don’t renew your RS annual maintenance, you have to buy a whole new version again for the full price (with all due respect to the good work that team is doing). If you want to upgrade to perpetual 2020, you also have that choice too, so this isn’t about locking you into a sub either. My advice is that everyone that bought V4 (which was released two years ago) should get maintenance (14.96/month 24 month) to ensure they stay on the latest 2020 version and get all the latest updates - this is 50% off the sub price. I guess this is a good reason to completely switch to redshift So everyone that bought octane 4 should just throw it in the trash? what a waist of $700. The first version supporting R23 will be 2020.1 only. Now we are at v8(2020.1), S22 and R23 cannot have a v4, v5, ecc. Latest C4D version supported by v4 is R21.
