Hello all! I am using particles with instance geometry in maya 2013, but when I change the material settings of source geometry, material particles does not change. What i doing wrong? Thank you very much!

Please, I need detailed "step by step" description of what you do and what you get, to try to reproduce this.
I can not answer on your question

i have poly object with octane diffuse material in my scene. i create particles emitter and make particles instance with this poly object. start ipr render and trying to tune octane diffuse material which assigned to poly object (particles). changing parameters of material nothing happens in ipr render window.

I can't reproduce it on my machine.



Perhaps you can share the scene where you are not able to do it?..
