Forest Pro (*) / Re: Crash!
« Last post by iToo on Today at 09:25:46 am »I apologize for the inconveniences.
Probably the crash was caused by a faulty version of the Microsoft redistributable, as reported here.
Regarding the download speed, i just done a complete reinstallation of libraries here, and speed seems fine. It required less than 5 minutes.
Our servers are located at EU, so download speed may change depending of your location.
For next times, i suggest to assign a path at Update Manager->File->Preferences->Packages Cache.
That creates a copy of the packages in the specified folder. It can be used to perform a reinstallation without downloading the packages again.
We have not tested it, but i guess it would be possible to download the packages while Max is running.
Just close Update Manager in the installation, launch Max, and then run Update Manager to continue the download.

« Last post by Bobby Parker on Today at 03:13:53 am »FYI - Forest Pack Pro took three hours. I understand there is a lot of data, but other libraries I've used are larger and took about 20 minutes to download. One thought is to allow us to use MAX while files are being downloaded, kind of like MAX does with its plugins.

« Last post by Bobby Parker on Today at 01:36:23 am »I reinstalled Windows and reinstalled everything - what a pain. Again, the Railclone download is insanely slow. I have 400Mb down, and over an hour in, and am 40% complete.

Forest Pro (*) / Crash!
« Last post by Bobby Parker on December 30, 2025, 08:48:19 pm »What a nightmare. Everything in Forest Pack Pro crashes. I can't open a file I worked on yesterday, or any Forest Pack file. I have a deadline! I can't even start over placing my Forest Pack trees and buses.

RailClone Pro (*) / Re: Steel Grating Floor
« Last post by iToo on December 29, 2025, 10:25:57 am »Hi, please take a look to the attached sample.
Although it uses bended segments for caillebotis (which has not sense in real life), i think the result looks fine at medium/far distances.
Unfortunately i cannot see a way to create it with non-bended segments, because that generates gaps between the pieces.
The scene was saved for Max 2023. If you need an older version, please tell me.

« Last post by iToo on December 24, 2025, 09:54:09 am »You're right, distribution was not exactly the same. I just fixed it, please download the file again.
What Max version do you use ? Scene was created in Max 2013, so it must work with any version supported by RailClone.

It's not exactly the same thing.
As you can see, it's an alternation of circles and diamonds in X and Y, not just in X (or Y).
Anyway, I have an old version of Max, so I can't open your file.
I'm really sorry.
Can you show me another way, please?
