Light animation on Vantage

Vantage Issues
1

Hello
I am still experimenting with Vantage but so far I am very impressed.
I sucessfuly exported a scene from max 2023 with camera animation but I notice that the lights are not animated.
In my case I have spotlights that goes on and off.. Works perfectly inside max but in Vantage it considers only the first keyframe.
Is that a limitation?
Otherwise, what is the work around it?

Thanks!

best,

Hi renato_kliegergennari,

Animated light parameters from vrscene is currently not supported in Vantage but will be in the near future. For now the workaround is to use Live Link and ‘Render animation using Chaos Vantage’.

Best regards,
Alexander

Is this still not supported?

Hi jon_berntsen,

No it is supported from some time now, since the release of Vantage 2.0 in June 2023. If something doesn’t work for you please share a scene so we can investigate

Best regards,
Alexander

Thanks for response. Ok so to be sure, to animate lights should be possible from within a loaded .vrscene? I can’t find anything about it in the docs or UI.
