Cloner Instances and random offset texture animation
here is my situation:
i am making a candle animation . i need lots of candles . but the candle body model is high poly.i just need render instance checked in cloner . that will be much faster than without instance checked.
i use a plane with loop animation fire texture. i want all planes play animation random offset. i did this by using time effector and multi-shader. but it will not work while instance checked . of course not .here is my idea, but not success yet:
use two cloner objects;
cloner 1 : candle body render instance checked
cloner 2 : use cloner 1 as object cloner, choose body’s one point as position to clone fire plane..
how to do this?
here is the scene file

you should be able to use two cloners with identical settings one with Instances, one without. Lined up correctly you would not need to use a reference point.

but if i want to change the setting , i need to change both cloners?
and now i find the way to get that ..
one cloner, but use multi-shader for instance rendering. it works fine.
