A long time ago I remember doing a blocking animation in cycles that didnt had any textures when I toggled on metadata (thats as far as I remember from a tutorial), I've been trying to achieve the same thing in 2.79 but it seems its not working or I'm doing something wrong.

I mainly want to render without textures to save time and see if my animation is looks okay.

  • $\begingroup$ on the bottom of your 3d view, on the right of the horizontal menu bar, there's a button called OpenGL Render Active Viewport, if you click on it you have a quick render without any texture, is it what you want? $\endgroup$

In 2.79 and previous versions: On the bottom of your 3d view, on the right of the horizontal menu bar, there's a button called OpenGL Render Active Viewport, if you click on it you have a quick render without any texture. The file will end in the folder you choose in the Properties > Render > Output panel.

Since 2.8: In the 3D view header menu > View > Viewport Render Animation:
