  • Radial Gradient moving with camera.

    Posted by Conor Spelman on March 25, 2013 at 9:41 pm

    Basically, I need to attach a gradient to my object as a material, Fine! I got as far as moving the gradient so that it colours my object correctly,

    The problem is that when I go to animate a camera to swoop over it and reveal, the gradient goes berzerk, it seems to move with the camera instead of being an element of my object.

    What I want to do is simple, but I keep getting to these problems and now this one has stunned me, Is there anywhere I can get advice on colouring in my objects correctly, applying gradients etc. Or is there something obvious I’m not seeing.

    Thanks.

    I’m in the tag tab, There’s a option for camera mapping in projection, Is this the right track to be on, not making much headway… 🙁

    it depends on the projection settings in the material tag and the settings in the Gradient as well (and that’s assuming you are not using Camera mapping on the same camera that you are using to render with). Can’t guess without seeing the file.
