cwalrus Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Hate to be asking this, because it seems as though it should be simple. I just want to have my alembic objects render as mattes in the alpha - just like clicking the "matte shading" button on the Render tab of any other SOP. For some reason this option does not exist on an alembic object? Is there some material similar to 'UseBackground' in maya that I could apply to the alembic geo? thanks!

anim Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 while you can add that checkbox from render properties, it's much more powerful to use workflow in following link, and it doesn't matter what geo the objects contain so it will work for alembics as well http://forums.odforce.net/topic/24161-mattealpha-rendering/?p=141865 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwalrus Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Holy batsperm! That was two answers for the price of one! I didn't realize you could add the parameter back in there that easily. Thanks Tomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
