Seems like everytime I use Octane I'm dealing with UV issues via the Modo plugin. Is there a better workflow coming soon to the Modo plugin that will better deal with UV's? I'm almost at the point where the frustration is making me want to stop using Octane.

I've learn't, now, to be very diligent with meshes and UV's with Octane/Modo.
Normally I wouldn't care too much when working in Modo as it deals with them all good enough.
But with Octane I make sure all single meshes have single UV's (and good ones at that). No more messy UV lists for me.

Yep, just discovering this myself. I have had strange results with modo UV nodes plugged into the projection slot of images.
From what I can see it's best to ignore using modo's projections and instead use the octane projection nodes and make sure they are pointed at the correct UV set. And as you say Josh this is totally dependent on having an ordered list.

If someone sends me a scene showing this problem, I can take a closer look.
Thanks
