Comps as materials for 3d models (AE Beta)

In Element 3d by Video Copilot, there is the option to use comps as materials for 3d models.

It would be extremely useful if it were to be possible to set comps/precomps in the same active comp as a 3d model to be the material for that model or a texture for one of the materials in the 3d model.
Do you (viewers of this post) think it would be useful/cool?

Is there any update on this feature being added?

Thanks for the suggestion. We are working on a few different ways to add materials to models, and this is one we want to look further at.

Hi there, REALLY hope you looked into it. It’s the only way to have animated textures.
