I am trying to create objects growing from a birth spline. Each object has its own texture/map. Rendering in VRay
Nor the objects nor the texture are animated. These objects are used as sprites (planes facing the camera) in the background of a scene.
I thought it would be convenient this creation process could automatically set set a map on each individual object extracting a bitmap from a sequence.
I have tried to use the Actor or Actor Animator to see if I could shuffle the frames or something. I could not use tyBitmap either.
The closest to get what I need is manually setting a different material (say about 10 to 20...) with a different map, and create a plane for each material, then use all planes as ref geometry with a shape operator. I can do it, but seems wrong.
Any suggestion would be great.
