Title: Rendering Problems Max 2014 and FPP
Post by: QU3922 on July 11, 2014, 06:35:33 PM
Hello, long time lite user, first time pro user :)

Got everything installed, my scene setup, everything working great, then I got to render and I get this error:

PHEN 0.4    168 MB error: Forest and Shader versions don't match (FP = w, FSHADER = 4)


I tried to find a solution, which eventually lead me to these forums where there was another user with the same issue, and was sent a patch (http://forum.itoosoft.com/index.php?topic=1841.15)

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello, welcome to the Pro forum and thanks for using our software. :)

The problem of the related post was caused by a custom patch that we sent to the user, so the fix is not applicable here.

In this case, it would be an installation issue. Please try this:

- Close Max.
- Delete the file <maxdir>\NVIDIA\shaders_autoload\mentalray\shaders\FShader3.dll
- Delete the file <maxdir>\plugins\ForestPackPro.dlo
- Reinstall Forest

Hopefully, that should solve the problem.
