Loading Image Sequence / Material ?

[Anonymous]

Hi there,

I created an image sequence: 

Frames from 0-200

I am loading that image sequence into the difuse slot of a material.

It creates an .ifl file.

Now, for my render within max, I want that this image sequence starts at frame 500.

I tried everything, but nothing works.

How to do that ?

Thank you !

Hi @Anonymous ,

Reviving this thread to note that you can go to the Time section of the Diffuse: Bitmap (IFL) in the Material Editor, then check Start Frame at 500, and make sure Hold (not Loop) is checked. That will start your animated bitmap on frame 500 but hold it until then. Thanks!
