Multiple objects as one instance.

Post by Victorcg » 09 Jun 2015, 10:08

Hi all.
Is it possible to set particle shape as instance shape of multiple objects? I can set instance shape from single object in group, but is it possible to create instance from all of them with their relatve positions? Thank You.

Dunno if it will ruin some other setup, but you could parent the objects under one "main" object, and choose "object and children" in Instance Shape options?

Sorry, it works, but I don't have access to children, for example the SRT of selected child. I'm trying to find another way.
