Playing Back Voxel Movies in Voxel Scenes โ€‹

Voxel Movies can be used inside Voxel Scenes through Reference objects.

This allows frame-by-frame voxel animation to be placed in a scene and played back as part of a larger animation.

Adding a Voxel Movie to a Scene โ€‹

To use a Voxel Movie in a Voxel Scene:

  1. Open the Voxel Scene.
  2. Locate the Voxel Movie you want to use.
  3. Drag it into the Scene View.

Foxel creates a Reference object and assigns the selected Voxel Movie to it.

Displaying a Frame โ€‹

The Reference object has a Frame property in the Inspector.

This property controls which frame of the Voxel Movie is currently shown in the scene.

Animating Playback โ€‹

To play the Voxel Movie over time, animate the Frame property of the Reference object.

A typical workflow is:

  1. Select the Voxel Movie Reference object.
  2. Create a channel for its Frame property.
  3. Add keyframes on the Timeline to change the displayed frame over time.

This lets the Voxel Movie play back inside a larger keyframed scene animation.
