forest pack not compatible with current vray version
« on: January 29, 2024, 12:45:57 PM »
Hi,
I'm using older max2013 with Vray 3.70.01. I know I'm old school!!
I just upgraded from forestpack437 to 825 mainly for the new hedges.

It installs fine and works in the viewport, renders with Vray RT but I get the 'not compatible' when trying to render production mode. I thought Vray 3.70.01 was supported? Is it my older max which is the problem?

My quick work around was just to re install forestpack437 and add the hedge max files to the older forestpack437 obviously losing all the updated features. but at least it works. Is this something that can be fixed? After trial and error it seems all forestpack versions after 437 aren't supported with my setup.

Hi,

V-Ray 3.7 is not supported in 3ds Max 2013. However, V-Ray 3.60.05 should work fine - the ForestVRay36.dll file has been included to ensure compatibility with V-Ray 3 on 3ds Max 2013. For all other versions of 3ds Max, only version 3.7 is supported. I hope this clarifies the situation.

Best regards,
