  • Need advice with exporting

    Posted by Josip Vrbic on July 17, 2013 at 11:47 am

    I need a little help overhere. I’m kind of newbie in Cinema and I wonder if its possible to export just some parts of my projects.

    The project is huge and I need to export just few elements as transparent png, but I want to have reflection and everything else on object when I export it, I want it to be same as it is in studio… I hope you understand what I need…

    How do you intend to use the exported objects? Are you talking about exporting geometry, or renders?

    Josip,
    I think what you are referring to are Multi Pass Renders. Specifically Object Buffers isolate parts of the render. Or, you just hide the objects you don’t want rendered and render the scene with the objects you want.

    just a few objects visible but all the reflections etc as if the rest of the scene was visible too? That’s possible with the Compositing tag or by baking the textures

    just place a Compositing tag on the objects you want hidden but still want to reflect etc. (or put them all in a null and apply the Compositing tag to that) and uncheck Seen By Camera in the compositing tag’s Tag tab.
