I've been trying to light up specific letters in a word using MoText and the Plain Effector in Cinema4D. I'm able to get it working with a Cloner Object and regular geo but as soon as i use MoText, the technique of using the Mograph Color Channel to control the brightness seems to fail. I even tried using individual letters in MoText in a cloner with no success.

Is there something that I am missing? Is there an issue with Octane and MoText?

It doesn't supported yet. I'm looking to that. Let's see how easy to add or not possible atm.
EDIT: Done a quick integration for effectors on letters option. See: viewtopic.php?f=85&t=54672&p=278686#p278686

Example file attached. One thing to take into consideration for anyone recreating this, you need to set the transform of the Letters on your MoText to either White or Black and the Color in your Plain Parameter to the opposite.
