    Hi Ronny,

    You could solve the overlaping problem by change the Strength value in the Step Effector to 50% and re-copying the first page texture in the last channel of the Multi Shader as in the screenshots. I have also attached the modified file below.

    Please let me know if that works with you.

    Okay,

    so far so good.

    This might be a general approach question rather then fixing

    things.

    I put the setup to test and there are clipping Problems.

    Its really difficult to make a proper Book with Pages turning.

    thanks in advance,

    Ronny

    i fixed it myself,

    instead of stacking the pages on top of each other, i rotated them slightly in the cloner.

    if anyone is interested i uploaded a file here 😃

    Amazing! I worked on your file yesterday for several hours to fix it, but I could not radically solve the problem. I just reduced the overlap, so I left the matter to return to it later. Then I now saw your post. It was a smart move on your part. I congratulate you on that. What is strange is that I previously changed the height in the cloner, but did not occur to me to change the rotation value. In the attached screenshot, in the red box is the rotation value that you changed so that anyone who faces such a problem will know how to solve it. In the yellow box, I changed the height value slightly to a negative value to show that the book has several pages to give a realistic look.

    Thank you very much for sharing the solution and file with us.
