Octane Materials Morph

[tonygold]

Hey Guys,

I'm trying to do a basic morph between materials using some octane shaders. Getting no blend, just a jump at the last frame.
I've done a test in the same scene and it works fine with normal C4d materials.

Anyone have any suggestions please? Is this possible with Octane?

Thanks.

Hi, material morph in the normal cinema style does not work in octane. You have to do this by using a octane mix material and animate the mix factor.

I actually tried that right after I posted. I'm adjusting the float slider and animating the keyframes. It's weird that the material icon changes as expecting / wanted but the animation in the viewport and render doesn't work!?

This is a sample scene for you. Post a scene if you have issues.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for taking the time to answer and supply example files!

It's just one of those things. I tried it again and it works fine. I've no idea what I did wrong!?

Thanks again.

Thanks again.

That's why i ask for your scene. If there's a potential problem i can fix it and will help others.

It took me ages to figure it out too, but I have a scene whereby tiles rotate 180deg to reveal a new image spread over a bunch of clones, I have about 6 images stacked using a MixTexture within a single material and when the rotation is complete, animate it to the next. It's awesome when you finally work something out
