Hi
What is the proper way (if at all possible) to initialize a Tree-Mode Forest Pack 4 object from Maxscript? Based on our own scripts, that were working for previous versions of FP, we’ve made an attempt at an adapted version for FP4. Basically this:
tmp_ground=plane pos:[0,0,0]
FP4_obj=forest_pro mode:1
FP4_obj.surface=tmp_ground
The surface part was added some time ago, as it appeared to remedy a similar problem in past versions, but this time around it doesn’t seem to do anything.
Attempting to add trees to the object created in this manner results in a ** system exception ** message if using FP4_obj.trees.create, or a complete MAX shutdown if using the Edit Mode\Add through the regular user interface.
