3ds max switching between meshes while recording on the time line

snake85027

lets say I have a camera moving through a town , as the camera moves through the street  the houses in the town starts switching themselves out with other models creating this illusion of morphing ... I saw a video online that gave this illusion that the environment was morphing into different states . I guess like an object sequence but I need something doesnt matter about the object being an instance or not. thanks

There are several paid plugins/scripts for this kind of work:

Or you could do it manually using procedural modifiers twist/bend/flex/melt/etc and some hand animation.

There are also a few free scripts and MCGs that might be useful over on scriptspot.com
