New to Fusion 8 Mac, have a couple loader questions

So I have a couple of questions with loaders...
1) It seems that instancing doesn't work with loader nodes although a tutorial I was following showed that this is possible. Is this just a feature that is broken on the Mac beta?
2) Is there an easier way to reload footage that has been moved into a different directory instead of having to find each node and relink each separately?

1) Allowing instancing on a Loader is what was broken. It is fixed now.
2) Either use pathmaps or scripts. The crappy way is to save your comp, edit in a text editor, search and replace, load comp back up.

Thanks Chad..
I will have to look for the update to the loader issue. I'm curious now about the pathmaps/scripts solution. I'll check the documentation.

I just downloaded the version of Fusion 8 for Mac and its the same version. How do you update the software because the loader instancing is still broken in this version?
version 8 build 16 - Sept 11, 2105

No, it was broken before, when you could instance. It has the correct behavior now.
