After the update terrains are looking a little weird. What should I change to get the previous look (on the left)?

Other users have the same issue. This is most likely a result of the changes made to the material system in Octane going to 4.0. We'll look into the issue ASAP.

Any update on this issue? Have to schedule a few tasks, so an estimation would be highly appreciated.

We found the cause. The fix will be part of next build.
