Forest Pro (*) / Just installed in Max 2024 - No FP UI Toolbar
« Last post by SC5342 on Today at 12:02:50 AM »Hi,
I've been running FP 8.25 on Max 2023 with no issues for over a year. I just installed Max 2024, and FP did not seem to migrate, meaning I see no FP toolbar. So I reinstalled FP 8.25 successfully, but no still FP toolbars appeared in 2024. Can I add them manually?
Thanks.

Apologies for the inconvenient, didn't think to look for something so simple.

I hope this helps.

The issue seems to be with Forest Ivy and I am not doing anything "interactively" Just rendering.
If I delete the ivy from my scene there are no license issues with FP and DR works as expected.

Forest Pro beta / Render node install problem
« Last post by PI7013 on May 29, 2024, 02:00:28 PM »I have installed FP9 on my render nodes with the "render node" install option and when I try to use distributed rendering (vray) I get a message saying "Forest Pack is configured to use a local license....."
Once the message comes up I can click OK then it syas cannot load a license (error code 2) so I click OK and then it starts loading and rendering the scene.
This scene has Forest system and Forest Ivy.
When I try to use distributed rendering on a scene with only a Forest sytem in it there are no issues with Forest Pack looking for a local license so the DR just works as expected.
So it looks like the Forest Ivy plugin is looking for a license even though it is installed as a "render Node"
Let me know if you need any more information
