AVS5 FAQ

Q. How do I animate the deformation of UCD data over time?

A: The ucd offset module deforms a UCD structure which has a vector (delta-x, delta-y, delta-z) component. If you only have a single deformation computed you can animate several frames from the undeformed state to the deformed state by plugging the animated float module into the offset factor port of the ucd offset module. If you have several time steps computed, you need to be able to read in each file individually. This can either be done with a CLI script, or with the animated filename module available from the International AVS Centre.
