Hi, multi instances (any mode) with random color on, change their color during animation in some clones.
Maybe it only happens when network rendering on, maybe it happens in general, havent figured that out yet. Let me know if this is the case for u also.
Thanks

Network thing is not plugin related issue. In short it's not about me.

The attachment random color.PNG is no longer available

Any idea on whats happening?

Hi franchais

the solution is very simple. Do you have selected "render instance" or "multi-instance" on Cloner? If you leave the default "instance" it doesn't works! Please select the other two options, it works!!!

Color index is depended to object's id. You can keep it static if there's change on object order and counts. Better to use instance color

Just checking in to see if there's any update on the bug with Denoiser + HDRI Environments (rendering black)?

All good if not, but just checking to see (ive got a bunch of renders waiting on the fix )

Heya, in specific project it is static and clone count is steady.
But during rendering they change color (like flickering).
There are cases where i can use octane scatter and bypass this and there are cases that i have to use multi instances (cause octane scatter has other disadvantages).

I will post a scene when project is complete.
Thanks a lot!

It's not a plugin issue, probably reported to Otoy team

Hi thanulee,
I have rendered a couple of scenes with Random Color node on static MoGraph cloner with Multi Instance option active, in both LV and PV, with Net render active on three slaves, but everything has worked as expected.
Please, replace the objects in the MoGraph cloner with cubes, than share the scene when possible, thanks.
ciao Beppe

(I Installed the current version) I can't download the new Procedual Textures from the LiveDB manager... it says 'Download complete' but they don't appear in my Material panel.
All the other materials I can download as usual. Has anyone had this problem or any idea?
