Quote - Just started a test render with the camera half above/half under water inside a glass container.

Parenting the container to the camera sadly didn't work because it didn't show up (like the camera) in Reality's materials list.

Still too early to tell if it indeed works for the under water bit, but at least there is an image forming : )

I'll replace it tomorrow morning after a good night's worth of number crunching.

 

 

Cheers!

 

I've noticed the same, where any item parented to a camera disappears from the mat list entirely (I suspect because a camera is not a material anyway and has no physical identity where lux is concerned). I do this for lights, where I move them while parented to a camera, then unparent when I get them into position. And name them, of course.

Still curious how this will play out. Good luck!
