    z-depth pass channel combiner?

    Posted by Remy Mainz on April 9, 2009 at 10:20 am

    Hi ccows!

    I have seperate passes from 3dsmax , 1 normal and 1 z-depth as tif sequences. I cannot combine them in a single file , ie RLA, because of a bug in max that wont render shadows with Mental Ray renderer if z-depth is on. SO I have to save them as completely seperate renders and therefore tifs sequences.

    How do I make them work together in AE?

    I cant see how to make the z-depth be a channel for the normal pass layer?

    thanks joe ger

    Can you explain what you mean by that?
