Hey all! I am running into a problem where my layer is becoming transparent when I enable motion blur, is there anyway to fix this? I'm trying to animate this poker chip to rotate and move off screen.

Btw I have a one node camera layer

Hey @Zoe24065982uee0,

This can often happen when you're experiencing z-fighting—when two objects are occupying the same z-space. Since motion blur is making multiple copies of your layer, you might not have seen this with MB off. Try moving your poker chip a few pixels forward in z-space to see if it becomes fully opaque again.

Thanks,
