Is there a way to tell Octane (or Cinema) to stop creating materials unless it is rendering? Especially with animated materials, it can really slow down the viewport. Beside, I don't need to see the Mats in my viewport.

Am I missing an option or would it be an option for a future Update, Ahmet?

What you say that's about generating opengl textures and material previews. Standard materials is doing same without giving any feedbacks. Its a bit faster because it's Cpu based. You will not get any good visual info if you stop this hovewer you can disable from LV options menu.
