We had a lot of problems with this kind of setup, the same as you , but also the order of the Ref models that changed on each scene load, the result was inconsistencies between each rendered pass.
finally we made the models local.

Subject says it all really.

Anybody has used instancing on particles with reference models in 6.0x?
If you did anything odd or any gotchas that would make localizing the models outweight the annoyance of manually tracking and updating?

I was testing some stuff the other day and I did have a couple instances (no pun intended) where the cloud didn't render anything the moment I switched contents of the linked group to ref models (and yes, they were set to a resolution containing some data :) )
