It has been a long time since i last used Octane. Downloaded the latest free version from this thread and I can't figure out how to change materials.

It's a Max SDK limitation. You can't "read" single elements of built in scatter tool. SDK only gives you the whole mesh.
At least i couldn't figure it out when i wrote my last render plugin.
So Otoy either has to write their own scattering tool for Octane (like Corona developers have done it) or you ...
