Hi,
When i using objects from chaos browser with modificator array i have black screen in rendering window when used. The same if i edit object by removing some geometry. It’s normal?
Cosmos assets are imported as proxies, which means their geometry is not fully loaded in the scene. Because of this, applying modifiers or attempting to edit the geometry is not supported and can lead to issues.
HI, @jaroslaw_kaszczak ,
I would to clarify a bit how our proxies work with instancing. If the V-Ray proxy instances are in some way realized either the preview mesh or nothing at all might be rendered. Also note that the preview mesh doesn’t have any UV maps at them moment, so even if you switch to full preview in the V-Ray proxy and try to use realized geometry it will likely be wrong. So in your case in theory you should be able to render them using an array modifier, you just need to disable Realize Instances like in the image below.
And I again want to say while my solution works with the array modifier, the first point is the most important one. Cosmos assets are imported as proxies, so their full geometry isn’t loaded, which means entering edit mode or using modifiers(like deformers and other generators) will cause issues. Instancing is the one particular case where modifiers actually work.
