RailClone Pro (*) / Corners ignored with bevel mode none but distorted geometry with all other modes
« Last post by MW0462 on Today at 07:33:12 pm »I have a curved panel I'm extruding along a path using RailClone. The seams between the panels are getting stretched along curves in the path. If I set bevel mode to "none" the seams are correct but corners are ignored so the spacing is all wrong. If I set the bevel mode to anything else, the seams stretch but the locations are correct. How do I get the seams to not stretch on curves but also respect corners? Pictures and max file attached.

Forest Pro (*) / Re: One FP version on two different 3d studio versions.
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on July 04, 2025, 02:16:44 pm »Hi,
There is no need for any special process - our plug-ins support multiple 3ds Max versions, and the installer should handle the installation process automatically. It might be that for some, 3ds Max 2025 isn't detected by the installer. When installing, in the Select Installation Type window, please check the Advanced Installation option - that will enable the selection of versions that aren't "detected" (in this case, 3ds Max 2025).
I hope that helps you, and please let us know if everything is working fine or if you are still facing trouble with it. Thanks in advance and have a great day.
Best regards,

Forest Pro (*) / One FP version on two different 3d studio versions.
« Last post by swavec on July 04, 2025, 01:57:51 pm »Hi
Im installing FP and there is no choice for what MAX version install to.
It installs to 2022 ignoring 2025 version. Repeating installation process doesn't change anything.
Is it possible to have double installation of FP? Haw to choose MAX version?
Thank You

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.

2.jpg - Registry after positioning RC style editor on screen 2 and closing.
3.jpg - Monitor resolution
4.jpg - Registry after closing and reopening max and adding a RC My main display is 1 which max opens on.

Forest Pro (*) / Re: FP cannot render objects with VRayLightMtl materials on renderfarm
« 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.
