I was getting weird artifacts, the base mesh would start randomly glitching at certain frames but I found out I just had to change the modifier to Fast instead of Exact. Now it works flawlessly. 😁

You just saved me from going mad searching for this for hours mate. Can't thank you enough!!

nice tutorial, i wasn't searching exactly for this but i kinda liked the tutorial for my project

[Fredrick]

bro, exactly what I wanted for my project.

[stevedowning]

Brilliant, thanks! After sitting through tutorials on toggling object visibility and using the mask modifier, this is what I was looking for :)

I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH. THIS IS SO USEFUL FOR MOTION GRAPHICS

Hey, that actually looks potentially useful! I was specifically looking for something to make an object disappear and reappear in animation, as part of a "see-through" effect for a robot I'm building to show his steam boiler in action. Since materials are shared for the same objects, I can't just make that become transparent and there doesn't seem to be a way of making individual objects fade in or out.
(I could also see this being useful for cartoon-hammerspace when a character pulls out a prop bigger than themselves!)

I searched an entire day for this specific use case and couldn't find anything. I kept searching for mask because that's how Photoshop and Premiere does it, but in Blender that refers to something else. Thanks a bunch!
