Trying to randomize start frame of animated Bitmap on particles
#3
(02-28-2025, 09:13 PM)Ok I'm trying to render this out in Arnold and it seems like it's not working in Arnold. When I try out the Gradient tutorial file it works fine in scanline, but breaks when I try to render it out in Arnold. Is Arnold not compatible with mapping out particles by age or UVW.x? Thanks for your help, Sputnikanimation Wrote: Hello,   

 I have a particle system with spheres that all have the same animated bitmap sequence on them. Right now they are all playing in sync and I want to randomize their starting point so they are all different. 

 I have found several threads on this but none of them have a solution or tutorial on how to do this. 

 I've looked at the UVW_gradient sample file and can't seem to get it to work with TY-bitmap IFL frames versus the gradient. 

 I'm not sure what I'm missing. If anyone knows of a tutorial or resource for this I would appreciate the help. 

Thank you for your time, 
 James
