MacOS High Sierra BVHKernel CUDA program compilation error

[Dieneel]

Hey Guys, i run into CUDA probolems when using Luxocre on High Sierra:
If anyone would help, that would be really appreciated.

So here is basic info

Basic info:
OS: MacOS High Sierra
GPU: GTX1080
CUDA Driver Version: 418.243(on CUDA 10.1) or 440.89(on CUDA 10.2)
GPU Driver Version: 387.10.10.10.40.138
CUDA Tool Kit version: 10.1 & 10.2 both installed
Blender Version: 2.8.3.4
Blender Luxcore build: 2.4 or. 2.5 latest

First, I installed Cuda Tool Kit 10.1, I tried both Luxcore 2.4 and 2.5 on blender 2.8.3, it says BVHKernel CUDA program compilation error.
Then, I update to Cuda 10.2, I tried both Luxcore 2.4 and 2.5 on blender 2.8.3, it says BVHKernel CUDA program compilation error.

Here is the report when running blender through the terminal:

The problem is here: the NVRTC DLL is not found. NVRTC is the run time CUDA compiler and it is not included in NVIDIA driver (so we have to ship it with BlendLuxCore).

I don't how MacOS work but you should check if you are missing the "libnvrtc-builtins.dylib" file.

Hi Dade, thanks for your reply.

Yeah, I already check that. There is a file named libnvrtc-builtins.dylib with a shortcut symbol on it and libnvrtc-builtins10.1.dylib/libnvrtc-builtins10.2.dylib that come with the CUDA SDK.
I put all these files in the luxcore Bin directory, but it still says BVHKernel CUDA program compilation error.

Cycles and Octane for blender work fines with CUDA here.

I fond asimlar post realted with CUDA; https://github.com/yusuketomoto/chainer ... issues/107. Maybe this is just a path thing.
Not a programmer myself so yeah
