Singing props

Hi, guys

when having my singing tree sing, when there is effects that are displaying in the group "ALL"
whilst the tree is talking / singing, if there is a all effect running, any un used pixels on the singing tree, gett effected by the ALL effect

is there a way so that when the tree is not singing it gets lit up by the ALL, but when singing, unused pixels on the singing tree do not light up with the ALL effects ?

it looks wierd as he may be singing then an all effect sweeps across the display, and his mouth and other unlit pixels are suddenly the ALL effects colours, and it makes his mouth movement un distinguishable


i want the tree when not singing, to follow the ALL group effects, just not whilst he is singing / talking

If you place a layer under you singing tree and place a off under the faces when singing it should stop the all effects showing up on your face

In addition to Croydon's correct advice above, what I like to do with my singing faces is to only include the outline submodel in the groups. I feel that any other pixels (eyes/mouth/etc) look odd with normal effects on them.

how do i add only a sub model ?

In the groups where you define the members, ensure the sub models tick box is checked. Then you should see the submodel in the list in the journey of Model name/SubmodelName, and it'll be in a brown/orange colour.
Add it to the right using the arrows as usual.
