Hey,

I want to move a octane Turbulence node in space and changed the T.X and T.Z values. As long as I do that live, I can see the changes in live viewer. In the moment I set a second key (red buttons), the first key gets lost. The value can be changed - keyed or not - and stays the same all time.
C4D Buttons have a red dot and show a red ring for an existing track. The transform node shows the last key as red dot, the track in orange (for an existing but *empty* track) and an orange dot for the position of the first key, wich indicates a changed but not keyed value in C4D (it was keyed).
Animating the offset of the Turbulence node would help also, though it is only one direction and often the wrong one. But here the same problem.
So how to animate transform values?

Thanks!

Thats easy: Node Editor and so LV aren't updating the values while scrubbing throu timeline, looking at Node Editor only. So I changed the values again and again. In the end there weren't rendered in the animation as well, so I "couldn't see".

Opening your file did the same, not showing the animation in node and in LV because I looked in Node Editor. It changed immediately when moving over to the C4D editor window, and so did mine.

Thanks for your fast help!
