Lock Cryptomatte Values

Hey there,

cryptomatte is great and works really well, but if i have the rerender some parts of my animation, the colors change randomly. Is there a way to "lock" them?

Hi - I'm not sure. At a guess I would say if Modo provides a different mesh order for the scene via the Modo SDK, then this would effect Cryptomatte. I cannot think of a way around this at this stage.

Hey Paul,

thank you for your answer. I also noticed that if reload Materials each Frame is ticked (which is necessary for animated weightmaps) cryptomap changes the material colors also for each Frame. Is there a way to improve this?

As always thank you for your work!

I will put in a request to OTOY to have a look at this.

Thanks
