Is there a way to render your animation in wire frame for creative resons or to show how a shot is made?

[floyd86]

yes, but its not easy. First make a texture with trans and spec 0 th rest default. Then you just select all the faces of your object. Then you use the Inset <I> tool. This will give each face a edge around it. How wide this edge should be, depends on yourself. While still having those faces selected, apply the material you made. When you render your image/movie it will be in wireframe.

why add more polygons to achieve a wire frame when you can use a UV map instead?

Its very simple, just export your model as wavefont object, import it into UV mapper Classic assign a planar map,then export the UV map and the new object file. then import the new model back into anim8or, assign the uv map to the new model then......rig.....anim8.....and render........cool..........=)

faster render times and the texture streches with the mesh as you anim8.......WOW

Have fun..

Technically it isn't a render but i use HyperSnap-DX which lets you capture images that are on your screen to show wireframes.

..If you really aren't trying to impress all you have to do is use the "Capture Screen" button above the insert key..

Then go into MS Paint or something and Go to: Edit-->Paste (Ctrl+V)

Simple but useful!
