Rendering DOPS

[Macha]

In the attached scene letters crawl across a surface. I used a DOP and POP network to achieve it.

However, I can't control the rendering of the DOP network correctly. The sphere always renders twice, once as a rigid-body-object, and once as a standard geometry, thus creating undesirable artifacts.

I've tried so many things, but it just keeps rendering. How do I solve this?

Thanks for that! I tried that before and never could get it working. Now I see that changing the import style was the key! Great!

BTW, you can create the copies in DOP dinamically and also provide them in to your geo...

For example:

1. Create one single brick.

2. Build in in DOP the brickwall.

3. Bring it back to geo as a lot of bricks.

Done.

Short example file (just press 'Play')...
