I've been looking forward to the octane/unity integration and was hoping to use it in a couple of projects planned after new years, but the info I'm finding here is a bit disheartening. The baking is nowhere near a useable state and the answers about workflow I find here is worrying. Baking one ...

It has to be more intuitive and easy to use than it currently is, at least. Without easy batch baking and an easy way to re-render/update the lightmaps without switching materials back and forth it's pretty much useless in production.

I'm trying out the latest beta and I'm trying to evaluate if it's something we can use in production. Is there a tutorial or quick instructions on how it's supposed to work?

1. Changing the "tiling" property for textures in the Unity "Standard" shader doesn't seem to work. Is this a known bug?
2. Octane materials aren't saved, at all. If I make a few glass ...
