RC6 - can't get same results as before
« on: July 20, 2023, 05:17:50 PM »
Hello,

I didn't notice at first but when upgrading to RC6, our Parquet-Style preset does not look as its supposed to anymore.
So I went back to your tutorial and followed it step by step and soon came accross some weird behaviour.
Please see the attached image. The left half of the image is me locally, the right side are the corresponding screenshots from the tutorial.

Link to the tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vn2xIVoNY04

Is this behaviour to be expected? What exactly changed here?

thanks

Paul Roberts

Hi,

In the tutorial the Transform node is wired to the Start input, in your scene I see it is wired to the Default input. If you connect it to the Start it should work as expected.

I hope that helps

Hello Paul,

Yes, of course - my bad.

I did another check and there actually is a difference in our preset between verion 6.0.7 and 6.1.2.
Please see the attached screenshots. This is the same preset opened in those 2 versions, with 6.0.7 being how it's supposed to work.

I also attached a max file with the preset.

thanks

You're right, it seems like the Max value in the Random node can no longer be a lower value that the Min value. This is an easy fix, just wire the node to the Min value instead, but it's definitely a change.



We'll look into it. Thanks for reporting.

Best,

Paul
