  • 1.  Trigger a scene from within a different scene.

    Posted 03-20-2025 12:43

    Dear Ross Community,

    I believe what I want to achieve must be quite simple, but I'm unsure how to make it work.

    I have an AScene going online, and at a certain point, it should trigger a BScene so that both are online simultaneously on different layers. BScene is in the sequencer and contains text information from a DataLinq, so I don't want the original scene from the scene manager to go online, but rather the one in the sequencer.

    I can trigger it using a Scene Director Trigger in AScene, but BScene must already be online or at least in a paused state. That's not what I want. I also came across the topic "XPression Script to Simply Set Scene Online", answered by Simon, but unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work-likely due to my limited scripting knowledge. While I have experience with simple scripting and visual logic, I couldn't manage to apply it correctly in this case.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hi Régis,

    Adding the script from the thread you mentioned as a script event in the scene's Scene Director worked for me. Do you have a copy of your project I can test with?


    Best,

    Hi Flint,

    How embarrassing, I think I just copied the script to the wrong place. Now it works perfectly. 

    Thanks a lot for your quick and effective answer!

    Kind regards,

    Régis
