  • Simple Plexus Question?

    Posted by Nick Vaka on October 9, 2014 at 11:34 am

    Just trying to connect 6 individual logos with a plexus and I’m finding the “Random Seed” on the points renderer always copies at least one of the logos, leaving one out. I’ve just got a path object, lines renderer, and points renderer on the layer. The points renderer is getting its texture from a precomp where the 6 logos are sequenced.

    I know there is probably a dirt simple solution, but I can’t seem to find it. Any help is greatly appreciated :).

    What you should probably do is put your logos in the comp instead of using Plexus sprites to render them. You’ll get better resolution that way too.

    Set the logo layers all to 3D layers and use Plexus to connect the logos that way. Go to Add Geometry > Layers in the Plexus effects controls and set it to 3D layers.

    Sorry, didn’t set the thread to email me responses.

    Good to know! I’ll try it out and let you know if I have any issues.

    Thanks a lot!
