I've been trying to use Scene Motion Blur on an Explode IPAS object. It doesn't seem to be working. I'm only test rendering the first couple of frames and all I seem to get are teeny pieces of exploded fragments (like two or three teeny pieces).. but when I turn OFF scene motion blur, it explodes properly (with all the pieces, etc).. Can someone try this to see if I'm mistaken? — Steve

What I've noticed in recent tests is that (in some cases only) AXP's can confuse the scene motion blur subsystem. I'm trying to focus in on the problem here (which is difficult, since it seems to happen randomly). If there _is_ a problem in there, we'll fix it for the eventual 3.01 maintenance release. – G

FWIW, I did some tests a while back with explode and motion blur applied to the .axp cube – and to my surprise, it worked just fine, although very slow. Thought I'd mention it.

Thanks for the feedback, Bill. At some point I'm going to have to spend some time in there and try to figure out what's going on (if anything).
