Hi everyone,
It's been a while since I've used PW and I'm trying to make an animation clip of a part rotating in space. I have everything setup and working, but I'm getting some flickering highlights on the part. What could be causing this? I have attached a video clip to demonstrate the issue.
Thanks,
Jonathan
Jonathan - is the material a satin or brushed finish? I think that's what's doing it. I did an animation that was having the same problem and had to switch to a different material.
I hope this helps.

Yes, it is a brushed stainless finish. I will try changing the appearance to see if that fixes it. Thanks
Sometimes chaging the codec can help with issues like this. I find that I get the best results when I export to images (tga) then compile the animation in another software (I use Adobe Premiere Elements, cheap and very good for what I need).
Have you tried saving animation uncrompressed? It will be large, but if anything you could bring it in to Movie Maker (free with Windows) and export from there to reduce the size.
