The rendering of the object's visibility animation shows up as black

[yangyang123]

"When rendering an industrial model in Chaos Vantage that is created in SolidWorks, there is a transparency animation where the transparency gradually decreases from 100 to 0, causing the model to gradually disappear. However, I've noticed a problem where the model appears black in the last few frames just before it completely vanishes. I'm not sure what the reason for this is." thanks

Hi, thanks for posting. A simple box with default V-Ray material with animated visibility works with no issues. There is probably something else in the scene. Could you send your scene for review? You can do that here or though the support contact form.

The model has been uploaded, please check. I found that all SolidWorks models, when imported into 3ds Max and rendered with Vantage for transparency animation, exhibit this issue. Thank you very much!

Your object just has too many layers.
Each one is counted towards the maximum 15 total bounces that Vantage can do.
We will make a note to increase the maximum for transparency.

"Thank you, what methods can be used to handle the model so that the transparent animation can be temporarily normal? Will there be an increase in the maximum for transparency in the future? Will there be new updates, and will the next version iteration be modified?"

Here is what we are trying for the next release of Vantage as a fix for your issue : https://imgsli.com/MjgzMDQ1
It works without raising the limit on the total number of bounces.
