Batch rendering is not working, I press Start, and the progress bar moves fast, says "Finished", nothing done.

Nice, thanks! :)

Unfortunately, the annoying bug with 'Mesh' node caching is still here: Octane Render doesn't reload .obj and .mtl files (i.e. not updating materials list) when opening another .ocs scene file with file same file path (as in previously opened scene) to .obj mesh.

Something is broken with the Mesh smoothing Flag and Mix materials. I currently cannot get any Mix Materials to render as smoothed. IF I enable smoothing in both mix nodes I get non-smoothed rendering. If I disable both of them I still get non-smoothed rendering. If I enable only 1 of them I still yet get non-smoothed rendering. I see there was a change made in that regard due to a bug that was reported but it has made the issue worse, not better from what I can tell. This is a material that is a Mix from the start. Help is appreciated.

Edit:
It should be noted that this is a problem with all of the 3.04 builds posted so far. I have had to revert to 3.03. These are materials previously built and loaded into the new 3.04 versions. These mix material shaders worked fine in all previous releases before 3.04. Do I have to rebuild the shaders from scratch in the new 3.04 versions for the smoothing bug fix to take effect?

That should work correctly. Could you post an example please? Thanks.

Previously to refresh the project I was working on in the standalone version, I just reloaded it, it was faster than reloading each instance scatter for instance when a project was completely re-exported from the modeling application. This behavior doesn't seem to work anymore, now I have first to select the "new" option in the menu to completely empty the work space and than load my project.
Am I right ? If so, is it intentional or this is a bug ?
Thanks

Any ETA on when transmission will be back working correctly, after it was broken in 3.04.3 (or the one before) ?
Would be great to know, since we would like to release a product soon, and it builds on transmission nodes.

Thanks for your help and time :)

It's fixed already in the development branch and I'm planning to get an update out this Friday. We are trying to roll some changes/improvements to the render job graph stuff into that release, too. I hope that is ok.

I will have a look into it.
