Hello everyone,
I have one problem with corona and forest pro Object ID.
So I created a lawn/grass with Itoo Forest Pro. The grass geometry is custom made, but this is not a problem.
The problem is - when I pick Corona MASK element in the elements tab. I sed it to RGB and a checkbox on OBJ ID - which is 1-2-3. So in my case I right click on the forest pro object go to properties and put object ID as 1.
So my MASK element RED channel 1 should show the grass mask. But its rendering it in BLACK. Basically corona obj ID buffer does not see that I set 1 obj ID on the grass/forest object.
Is it that forest pro is not suported in corona elements or how does it work? Or should I just go on the object that I am scattering it and select the ID there first.
I am a bit lost. Please help :)

The latter.

Thank you :) I will try that :)

Forest Pack Pro object-MASKS need to be defined in the to-scatter objects, not forest pack itself. Annoying cause you cant use the same grass scatter object in 2x different forest pack objects if you want to mask grass A from grass B.
You would have to duplicate the to-scatter objects and create a new ID in that one.

Amazing, the forum is full of FPPro-Mask/ID pass issues, but nobody ever created a valid, "official" feature request that we should be able to select the FPPro object OR a scatter item to create passes/masks.
