Timeline : can't record Global Volume changes on an animation track

Hello,

Unity version : 2020.2.1f1

I'm aiming to control a lot of different things through a timeline, but i can't do this with a global volume to control post processing at runtime.

Everything work, from camera controlling with an animation track to audio controlling via an audio track. But when i try with a global volume and push record, nothing is recorded.

Could you help me ?

Best regards,

Julien.

 

I mean a post process volume with the global mode activated.

I understand, well thank you for your help.

 

Any development regarding this? How can we record cinematic without being able to record the automation or post processing change of states?

 

As someone very new to HDRP and the volume system for post processing, I just wanted to add the fact that volumes are assets (files on disk) "feels strange" and has bitten me multiple times already. I have no idea the feasibility, but I would have much preferred volumes to be stored in scene game objects. Yes, useful for animation, but I had a more mundane reason. I like to copy and paste things between Sequences (camera shots using the Sequences package). I copy, paste, adjust. The problem with assets in general is the copied game objects refer to the same asset (they don't copy it). I have gotten bitten several times already cloning objects, changing profile settings, only to discover I broke another shot because the volume was shared. (I am changing properties like camera depth of field settings.)

Is there any other way to have volumes as game objects instead of assets (files on disk)?

 

Hello folks!
I've also suffered from that it is hard to animate post-processing parameters in animator or timeline. Hence, I've created a package that's called AnimatableVolumeComponent, to deal this problem.
You can animate your volume with this package, without writing any code. For details, the package creates MonoBehaviour copies (which is animatable) of every VolumeComponent, and write back the parameter values to a runtime Profile on LateUpdate(). (Profile asset remain unchanged)
I hope this package can help you animating post-processing parameters. If you tested it and find a bug, please tell me or submit an issue in the repository.

 

It's a great idea, thanks
