Re: Camera pass overrides?

2014-03-06 Thread Lp3dsoft 
Hi,

Get an implicit cube.  Link your camera's ink shader parameter to the 
visibility of the cube! Hide the cube in a partition when you don't want ink, 
have it visible when you do!

Cheers

Not sure if it will work, but I barely remember a trick with an implicit 
object: Add an implicit object, which can actually live in a partition, add a 
custom parameter set and add as many parameters as you need. Connect those to 
the lens shader and finally override those instead of the camera directly.



Again, I can't remember if that was the right way to do it, but you can try 
something among those lines.

Re: Camera pass overrides?

2014-03-06 Thread Francois Lord 
It seems you are right, Morten. You cannot change even the angle of the 
camera with an override.
However, if you only want to change the lens shader, there is a 
parameter on the pass to do this (last tab, last parameter down). You 
can append a camera shader or you can override it entirely.

Does it do what you want?
