The solution was to set the frame rate to 60fps. Not sure why this would need altering as it was an image sequence render. Anyway, all fixed. Thanks for you suggestion.

Does having Depth of Field switched off correct the alpha issue?

Can’t see how it would but then again it may be causing your problem. Worth trying….

Oh dear, I feel a little foolish now.

As the setting was ‘geometry’ in the first render (and it worked) I left it unchanged it in the following render. Anyway I have set it to best and it works now. Sometimes it’s the simple answers. I went looking for something more complicated, that’ll teach me.

So, in summary.

Me, stoopid.
You guys, great.

Many thanks.

Matthew.

Ah, I see it now. Nice one, how about dropping it into a scene. Darkly lit table perhaps?!

Hi Lennart,

Thanks for the info. After some more tinkering with exclusion of various objects (and changing the luminosity settings of my backdrop) I finally achieved the effect I was looking for (pic below). Many Thanks!

Thanks Adam for confirming it works too, that kept me from straying off the path!

Thanks Lennart, it almost works!

If the background is black it works very well. However, as this is a medical animation the scene is white.

When I render it out it shows nothing (unless I put an object behind the brain and then it’s visible.

pics attached should hopefully make sense. Any further suggestions?

Im currently looking into the ‘Environment Object’ as on option to replace my large white sphere with 100 illumination (this forms my scenery in which my models are placed) and may be causing the problem?

Many thanks, Matt.

K, so it’s the X-ray effect in the viewport. I guess the question is, how can I replicate this in the render?

Ill be quiet now… 🙂

Thanks
Matt.
