Hi!
I'm curious if material node groups are supposed to work or if they're not supported by the plugin.
As far as I can tell, I can make a group in the node editor encompassing the whole material node graph no problem but as soon as I try connecting any inputs or outputs from outside the group I get the standard white material, ungroup and it's fine though.
I'm on Windows, using 3.04.3 v11.8
Thanks for an otherwise excellent plugin, it was well worth the wait!
Cheers /Erik

could you write when Node Group Exposed Parameters will work with Octane Nodes?
It is very hard to create own shaders without this capability especially when creating very complex materials ( look at the picture )
Please, tell when.
Thanks!

BUG: Texture Image Node do not update LivePreview when texture image has changed.
You have to restart LivePreview manually and the you can see image map change.
Is it possible that image texture change does not make whole LivePreview update & restart process but just update of this single material without processing all materials form the beginning ?
There is no problem in simple scene, but in large scene with lot of shaders it consumes a lot of time causing everything update process from scratches.
