TYFLOW mapping operator in VANTAGE

[dino_piccinelli]

I am trying to make work an effect that should give this result:

I am using tyflow and the operator responsible to change from black to white the gradient ramp in the visibility channel of the blend material is the one called MAPPING



Everithing work ok in vray but VANTAGE doesn't get the mapping info

It make like a mix for all the duration of the animation
Maybe you have some work around

Im afraid the only way to fix it by now is to add a node "export particles" and export it as a vray proxy

Does it work if you use V-Ray Standalone to render it ?

Can you please attach or send us the scene for investigation ?

Yes, in VRay it work

I removed the texture but everything behaves like before.

Which versions of 3dsMax, V-Ray for 3dsMax, tyFlow and Vantage are you using ?

I am trying it on V-Ray 7 for 3dsMax 2025 and Vantage 2.7 and I get a crash in Vantage when moving the time slider in 3dsMax with the live link running.

Note that the UV channel animation is not exported to .vrscene at all, so if you want to use .vrscene, that's something to bring to the V-Ray for 3dsMax team.
(that's why I asked about the result in V-Ray Standalone, it uses .vrscene too).

HI, I'm using the same configuration as yours, and I also get a crash in Vantage when I activate the second mapping operator. If I use only one mapping operator to make the box just change from color 1 to color 2 : vantage doesn't crash but, yes the UV channel is not exported, I always use live link becose I work in many different animation and I can't everytime export a separate vray scene.
