Trivial.

Two simple ways:

1) mantra output driver deep raster and choose N for the Vex Variable and render. In Mplay, just choos N as the view and there you are.

2) in VOPs, just put down a render globals and wire N in to Cf, drag any of the vops on to your object, render, voila.

ok thanks jeff,
that's easy, I use the VOP version.

but how I go from step 2. to 3. ??
I have tried “mantra -u myobj:uv” –> always a black frame

Just making sure, but do you have vertex (as opposed to point) uv's on your geometry?

I get the same… black frame. And I am using vertex attributes. :cry:

but it works in 5.5.305
