Hi,

Thanks for replying.

I've attached the model as well for you to look at.

Ruby Console was showing the following, however I was having the same issue where it was rendering the first frame on repeat/no movement :

I stopped the render at this point as this is when there is a gap in the door which is easily visible to see if it is working.

Thanks.

Model I'm Using

Hi,

I love the animator and it works great for creating spinning camera angles of my building designs however I've found an issue when rendering animations involving movement and kinetics of doors.

The animation works fine within Sketchup and in Animator. It also shows on the interactive render within Vray.
However when it comes to creating the MP4, it is only rendering the first image of the closed doors on repeat and not creating an animation.

This is the video which I am trying to render using Vray Next (working when just using Sketchup):

This is an example of the videos I have been creating where it has worked fine and rendered in Vray:

Please help as I am loving the software so far and would like the animated door videos to match the showcasing of the model.

Versions I am using:
Sketchup - Sketchup Pro 2020
Vray - Vray Next 4.20.01 Feb 18 2020
Fredo6 Animator - 2.6c - 19 Mar 20
