Mantra question.

hscriptinstance procedurals don't have any support for deformational motion blur correct?

As a quick test I created a tube that bends 90 degrees over between frame 1 and 2.

The point attributes are being created correctly for the time step and the IFD looks “correct”. So the only thing I can assume is that the procedural only runs at the first time step.
