2. Aren´t there any material presets inside octane or repository where you can download materials?

3. Im trying to get reflection blur/refraction on a specular material, but I can´t find where to change that?

Hi!

2.) Yes, there is Octane Live DB, an drag&drop repository for materials, textures, emitters... but you can access it from the current licensed version only

3.) Map bump or use rough glass feature (not present in the demo), refraction = index parameter. Remember to use pathtracing for realistic glass

The demo version is 2.2 (=quite old), the current beta version is pre2.3. When 2.3 will be stable and feature-full, a demo version of 2.3 will be released, so you could wait until then to test the Live DB and the other features that are not present in the current 2.2 demo.
