Hi,
After updating to 3.3 (blender), my mesh disappears in the V3d render after I simply add a new shape key. Could anything else be causing this? If I delete the shape key everything goes back to normal render.

Update: reinstalled 3.2 and still the same, so it was not the update.
*After going back to 3.3 I continued deleting shape key layers until it worked again. But it seems that I can only add 5 shape key layers. Each time I add a 6th I can only see the shadow.

Thanks, Rick

Here’s both firefox and google. Yes, it looks like a limit of sorts. The last shape key 6 has no editing.( I only clicked the + )

thanks,Rick

Hi Rick,

can you isolate this issue in a .blend file? we’d take a look.

I just emailed you the files with this forum title. Thank you for looking into this.

If I unparent the armature, I can get more shape keys, but I am limited to just 5.

Thanks, Rick

Hi Rick,

Unfortunately, that material cannot use more than 5 shape keys because it’s also used for a skinned mesh. The documentation here says about the limit of 6 shape keys, but in case of skinning or using certain nodes we can only support 5 while 6 will cause the error that you have right now.

We’ll update the documentation to make it more clear how many shape keys you can use exactly depending on a particular material/mesh setup. We’ll also think about how to increase the amount of supported shape keys, but it’s not a high priority task for us right now.

hi Ivan,
That makes perfect sense now. I can easily adjust to this, as it is way better than when Verge3d was first released, in that I can combine those two methods of animation now. Thank you guys for looking at this and giving further explanation.

Sincerely, Rick
