Title: Blend two physical Mtls with volumetric scattering
Post by: second ich on 2023-01-10, 13:04:39

Hello,
I'm trying to animate a transition between two Corona physical Mtls with volumetric scattering by using the layered Mtl. But there is no transition from one to the other. The Transition only works when I deactivate refraction. Any idea how to fix this?

Thank you

Hi,

The issue is that when using the Layered Material in Corona, the volumetric effects will always be taken from the Base Material. To achieve the animation you are looking for you can just animate the color(directly, in one material, not using Layered Material) or you can use Corona Color into the Scattering Color of a single material and then animate the value from one color to another color.

I hope this helps.
