We were really liking the Octane random color texture generator. But we have discovered that the colors change every time the file is opened. So our cars and a lot of other items are continually changing. It mean everytime an animation must be rendered from the start, as well as having no control over what color object will be each time.

It would be much better if the colors stayed the same each time.

Do you use XRef, MultiScatter, Forest Pack?
Do you have this problem with any objects using random color texture or just with certain? If it is only certain objects, what kind of object are they?

It is happening with Xrefs and merging. Seems to be fine when working without XREFS.
