Vray animating material HELP !

T.P. · 30-04-2008, 07:18 AM

Hey guys ,
i have an animation that requires ,a transition from complete transperant to an exsiting material one , now ok
i know that if you use STANDART material you can go and animate it from opacity 0 to 100 and than the object appears BUT
HOW the hell do i do this with vray materials ????? PLZ HELP

If it's a whole object, then it's easier to right-click on the object and key the 'visibility' spinner.

Or for a vray material, you could turn down the IOR for refract to 1.0.
Then key the refract colour changing from white (transparent) to black (solid).
