Render > Clip object behind with objects in front

[Samirnoff!]

Hey guys, I have a problem.

 

I have a incredibly large scene to render an animation with, so I'm doing it in parts.

 

I wonder if this is possible:

 

Lets say from the perspective of the camera there is a cube partially visible behind a sphere. Is there a way to render only the visible portion of the cube?

 

So therefore, neither the sphere nor the hidden part of the cube will be rendered.

 

Thanks a lot,

Samir

Try using a "Render Subset of Scene/Masking" in the Camera Shader rollout. If I understand what you are trying to do, it is what you want.

Gee, I love you homeless man!
