I was wondering if there is a way to KEYFRAME the scene/opacity setting? I would like my scene to fade to lower opacity so the objects would be see through. Kind of like a special effect. Just dont know if I can keyframe any of the scene properties in the workspace realtime mode. Thanks much.

I tried the Layer Render Attrib. with no effect, seems to me that's more for truePlay scenes. Let me know if you want instructions for per object.

Briefly, it involves encapulating all objects in scene and applying Object Render Atribs to encapsulated objects and exporting Surface Opacity. The down side is shadows will vanish quickly.(no transperant shadows in real-time. Post by jhowell // Jun 23, 2007, 7:12pm jhowell Total Posts: 400 Thanks for your comments. Sounds pretty complicated. If you or someone else gets the time to post the step by step that would be great. Remember Iam rendering to file via the workspace. So not using regular rendering.
