Plexus question (rendering facets) Beginner question!
  • Devon HosfordDevon Hosford
    Hi everyone!

      I just got Plexus 2 today which is my first version of Plexus that I've used. I am going through tutorial bootcamp and for some reason whenever I add a Facets Renderer to my solid, nothing happens. I've tried increasing the max difference, zooming in and out with my camera, etc, but nothing works. I have other renderer objects such as lines on the solid already and that works fine, it's just the facets that give me trouble.

      Is there a setting in AE that I should have turned on that I'm missing? 

      Again---I am a total newbie with Plexus, so please forgive my ignorance. Thank you all so much in advance!

    Make sure the object you are using has the 'Generate Facets'  setting turned on to something that matches what you want to render.

      Thanks so much for responding. When you say "Turned on to something that matches what you want to render" is there a way to specify that? Right now I have 'Generate Facets' turned on, and everything is set to effect all groups.

     Interestingly enough, if I Replicate 3 copies or more of the path object, the facets appear. Not sure if this helps figure out what's going on.

    Thanks again!

    Hard to say without seeing your project. If you think you have found a bug please open a support ticket and include your project file (just the .aep no footage)
