Hello
I'm did this animation where a flat map of the world becomes a globe. There are dashed lines going from one country to another continent. The way I did It in Modo is, over the world texture, I have a static image of the dashed line in pgn, with transparency , only the dashed line are solids, linking the two countries, and an animated clip map, (a white line going from start to finish of the dashed lines) revealing the dashed lines.
Now, I tried (for rendering time reasons) to switch to Octane to render the animation (350 frames) but I can't find a way to use the clip map sequence into Octane. Of course the setup I have in modo shader tree is a bit too complicated for Octane to "read" It directly.
I thought of using two Octane materials and apply the clip in the mixer's opacity.
Thank you
Image sequence in Octane / modo?

Another question: I'm calculating the dashed line with Modo native render, to addd them to the Octane rendered sequence in post but the lens don't match. How can I "translate" Modo lens to match exactly what I get in Octane, or the other way around?

Hi. Image Sequences are only supported for Modo Materials (not Octane Overrides) in the current release of the plugin. However in the next release, you can connect an Image Sequence clip "pattern" channel to the Filename pin of an Image node, so image sequences can then be rendered for Octane Overrides.I'm did this animation where a flat map of the world becomes a globe.

Sorry - I am not exactly sure what you mean by this. Are you able to provide a screenshot showing the problem please?Another question: I'm calculating the dashed line with Modo native render, to addd them to the Octane rendered sequence in post but the lens don't match.
