Well, yes it works, but now copy the Octane system files to the LW/bin folder is not needed at all, and leave the Octane system files alongside the plugin .p file makes the updates easier and less prone to errors due to mixing old/new dll or plugin files.

Nope, you don't need the Standalone installed to work with the LightWave plugin. In any case, it is here:

This can be a limitation of the denoiser, probably something that will be fixed in an upcoming build.

When the denoiser is enabled a limited region render displays black when it's done rendering. During rendering the preview shows correctly.

Glow effects should work fine. Could you please send me the scene for testing?.

Yesterday, during the render of a simple scene with instances and denoiser, I received a warning from the windows that the memory is full. Although only 10 gigabytes of memory was used out of the 64 available. Out of core is 'on' and set to 32 gb.
In addition, it all looks like Adaptive Sampling does not work in the 4th version. I tried this in a variety of modes - there is no effect.
