Just a quick query as an aside:

I was doing a shaded render of a Chor Action as a QT movie and ...in one frame the character lost part of her skirt. Rather "disconskirting" to say the least. There is nothing in the frame to indicate this should have happened. Now normally I render Targas for final renders. This was just a test, so I did a QT movie. This was a bit like a refresh thing, when decals and surfaces don't immediately come back. Her skirt has a material, but no decal.

Um, does the shaded render go a bit weird every so often? It was chugging out the frames very fast. I will not post an image, but suffice it to say that she showed rather too much leg. The rest of her dress was there. I'd blush if I wasn't so tired.

So I was just wondering if the shaded render can go weird.

happy weekend,

If you make a change to the decal externally (in a paint program) I notice the realtime renderer can be transparent after a render.

I noticed that too, but her dress has a meterial, no decals, except by the neckline. It's the skirt that goes, and I haven't changed the material. But I did a final render of a second or two and I'm happy to report that she won't get locked up for indecency.
