we have a problem;

 

pointcloud A scatters random geometry from group A on a surface

 

pointcloud B (which is a duplicate of pointcloud A) scatters random geometry
from group B on the same surface

 

with me so far?

 

the purpose of this is to have the same objects (Arnold standins of trees)
on 2 clouds, Colour ones for RGB, black ones for depth pass

 

(you can't override standin materials, scattered with ICE.... go figure)

 

problem  the two clouds pick DIFFERENT random objects in each case, they
DON'T MATCH!

 

i have a scene to repro if anyone fancies a look..... this is a Soft problem
(the override thing is arnold's)

 

the workaround is to duplicate cloud A, freeze it, and in a new ICE tree,
reset the shape using a copy of the original portion of the original ICE
tree

 

confused? we were...
