Animating Railclone
« on: August 23, 2018, 03:12:00 PM »
Hi,

Im wondering if this is something I have caused or a bug? From from 80-100 the material ID shifts on my object when animating the Y rotation? I have attached the scene for reference.

Number of Segments being used in RC changes, so their randomization changes as well:

I have this material as Sequence instead of Random within the railclone, I expected this behavior might happen before frame 80, but after there should be no additional segments being added (so I thought). Is there a way to stop these from creating more segments?

Bevel mode none seems to do the trick:
