Hi guys, i am trying to make and space battle animation in 3ds max 2011 and i have encountered a small problem. The scene i am trying to shoot is that a Orion warps in to attack a Moloch. The problem is that i cannot seem to make the Orion invisible just before it warps in. I was originally told to right click on the model, select object proprieties then set the visibility to 0.0 in the rendering controls. Then make a keyframe. Once that was done, go to the next frame and then set the visibility to 1.0 and set keyframe.
The problem i have when doing this, as soon as i set the visibility back to 1.0, it resets the previous frames which where at 0 back to 1, so the ship is visible in all frames. I am doing something wrong or did my tutor give me the wrong info?
