FP 8.0.6 and Vray 6.1004
When I create anything from the Library, Layered Lawn for example, I get an error "Error on Material Override" however it seems to render just fine.
I can't render, however, any of the cut hedges i've tried. i get the same error, but not even any previews in the viewport (mesh/proxy/point-cloud).
so maybe these are two separate issues b/c the layered lawns work?
thanks,

Hi,
I'm sorry to hear, you are facing trouble with it. Please, proceed with the following:
- Delete ForestQtCatalog.dll and ForestQt.dll files from the 3ds max root folder (by default C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2022).
- Reinstall the plug-in (it shouldn‘t be needed, but it‘s recommendable).
That should fix it. I hope that helps and please let us know if that's all working fine or if you are still facing troubles with it. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,

hello. ok i tested this morning and got the error, but i then updated to version 820 instead of trying this fix. after updating, i searched for this .dll but could not find it in the default location or in the program files folder at all. so then i checked to see if i still got the error and low and behold, no error :)
thanks!

We added a check in Forest 8.2.0 and RailClone 5.3.0, to remove these DLLs automatically from the installer.
So this problem should not happen again.
