Displacement popping problem 2004-06-02 - By Chris Marshall

No, I'm using Parametric. I usually use Fine, but I was finding the render
times went way up, and Parametric was acceptable.
What I'm finding is that if I draw a render region around the area, it's OK,
but at Pal size, it's clipped. What I'm doing is rendering the offending
frames at twice Pal, and resizing. Not ideal, but I don't have time to fix
it any other way.
Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris, what displacement settings are you using? If you're using
length/distance/angle with
'view dependant' on and the object is moving slowly into frame this could be
the cause of your
woes... just a thought. I find that if you use length/distance/angle it's
always better to leave
view dependant off anyway. Your renders will be much quicker as it won't
re-tessellate before every
frame. Unless you have anything animated in your render tree that is.
