chaos scatter render decals

[vance3d]

Is there a way to have decals scattered by chaos scatter and render the scatter directly instead of converting them to geometry? I haven't been able to get it to work and was wondering if I had missed a switch somewhere

Thanks

If you mean this: VrayDecal + Railclone / ForestPack - Chaos Forums

Then no, not without replacing a scattered box or similar with a vraydecal. If enough people ask they might consider making it work.

What Vizioen said. FYI, I've added your request to our log (internal bug-tracker id: VMAX-12495) as well.

I was referring to the scatter capability in vray with chaos scatter and not using forest pack or rail clone since I knew those wouldn't work having read the post you linked to above. From what I've seen, chaos scatter works the same way as forest pack in that you can scatter the decals but it won't actually render them until they are instantiated out. It would be really great to have "render live" capability instead of having to bake it out essentially

Thanks for responding so quickly.
