Megascans materials not rendering properly

I uploaded some megascans materials to Unreal 4.22.3 via the Unreal Bridge Live link and wanted to see how they render in Octane. It looks like the normal and opacity is rendering correctly but the diffuse/albedo and the translucency are not.

It looks like Quixel megascan materials use PerInstancedRandom in their instanced and foliage materials.
This is not supported by the plugin at the moment. Ill check if I can add it.

Non-foliage materials seem to work well on my side.

Thanks for checking that out. Would it be possible to get translucency on the foliage as well? I also tested some Speetree assets and Octane rendered them fine with the exception of translucency.

I have added subsurface/translucency. Will be part of the next build.
