Title: layered material make objects invisible in viewport
Post by: Barendby on 2019-03-08, 08:28:22

As the topic say.... sometimes after working in a scene for a while the objects go invisible when I blend two materials with the layered material

Anybody else having this?

What kind of materials are you making? Can you share some images?

I have attached a scene with a cube
For me, when I open the file the cube is visible. It have a layered material on
Take the png I have also attached, when I place that in the layered material mask the cube goes invisible.

Would be good to know if it is my system or something in c4d/ corona?

would anybody please be able to test this? I would like to bug it if needed, if it is only my PC I would love to know what is causing it...drivers?

I cannot use anything layered at the moment...

Thanks!

@Beanzvision, can you move this thread to the bug list or should I open a new one?

Sure thing. I have also tested your scene and can confirm this. Adding to our bu reports. ;)

This is kinda odd, the first time I opened your scene added the mask, it went invisible. After I removed it, it came back. Then I added it again and it's normal. Not consistent at all. Still worthy of reporting though.

Thanks for moving it.

Yes, very inconsistent. I tried layered materials a few times, always work, stop, work, stop... that is why I was hesitant to report it earlier. But lately I need them more and more so it got frustrating :)

Thanks for testing!
