Forest Pro (*) / Re: Corona Distance for density?
« Last post by Lupaz on July 03, 2025, 04:06:29 pm »Not sure if this was suggested before, but it would be great if Forest pack could use gradients and not just black/white for distribution and density.

RailClone Pro (*) / Re: Multiple Monitors
« Last post by dirkmyers on July 03, 2025, 02:33:06 pm »See attached. I do work on a virtual machine. My local has 4 monitors and virtual uses the 3 on the left. I reopened max after going through the steps. RC came up in the last location. Then it immediately throws it back on the main monitor.

« Last post by iToo on July 02, 2025, 10:21:22 am »We just contacted to Chaos about this issue: to use Direct Illumination Forest object must return a triangle mesh.
But by default, Forest generates instances of the source object and a null triangle mesh.
To fix it, just set Display->Render to Meshes, as Michal suggested.

Forest Pro (*) / Re: Can you add a few forest packs as a single preset in the library?
« Last post by Rhodesy on July 02, 2025, 10:12:28 am »Thanks Michal, I can stop looking at least. Yes adding this as a feature would be very powerful and hopefully not too much effort if you can get the forest library to import multiple fp objects at once as a start.

« Last post by Michal Karmazín on July 02, 2025, 08:14:11 am »Hi Rob,
I'm afraid, that as mentioned in this tightly related post - at the moment, the Library Manager does not support handling multiple Forest objects. These objects need to be handled separately, as individual Forest objects. This is similar to the case of our Layered Lawns presets. The same applies to importing - although it is possible to import several items from the library simultaneously, these layered presets need to be added to the scene one by one. This is because a new Forest object is required for each of these presets. We'll see what can be done in future versions.
Best regards,

Forest Pro (*) / Can you add a few forest packs as a single preset in the library?
« Last post by Rhodesy on July 01, 2025, 05:05:27 pm »I can't seem to find anything on this but it might be a forest set thing. I've created a wildflower meadow scene that uses three forestpacks to create the meadow. I would like to be able to save the three forestpacks as a single preset in the library. Currently I can just do one by one so I need to create a forest pack in the new scene then import the first preset then repeat for the next and then the next and then add the surfaces and areas. Is there a quicker way to combine all three so they can be imported once? I have three because they use different assets and scatter options for each one.
Thanks
Rob
