  • Plain Effector effecting opacity of clones (Alpha Color Shader not working) – Completely Lost…

    Posted by Rob Mason on February 3, 2018 at 7:49 pm

    I am applying a plain effector to a cloner full of simple triangles and have already applied the Color Shader to each of the materials of the shapes within the Cloner.

    * I have set the Cloner color to black.
    * Color Mode is on
    *Blending Mode is Default
    * Tried toggling Alpha/Strength
    * All of this does nothing and I am completely lost…

    The effector is effecting Rotation/Position/Scale, but this color idea is not working like seen in other tutorials. Please help.

    Could you provide a link to the specific tutorial you are trying to follow, and describe exactly what you are trying to accomplish?

    Nevermind! I figured it out.

    I had to apply the color shader to each of the materials first before adding the effector. Weird issue but nonetheless it worked.
