Forest Pro beta / FP Ivy - display limit
« Last post by RealViz on May 27, 2024, 10:49:28 AM »Hello,
just an idea for improvement. Would it be possible to add some limit to the FPIvy display? I.e. e.g. it would display 10% of the leaves. For larger Ivy's definitely useful. Now everything that is subsequently rendered has to be displayed :-(
Thanks

Forest Pro beta / Point Cloud - hard to select
« Last post by RealViz on May 27, 2024, 10:37:08 AM »Hello,
So I manually installed Max2Arnold to test FP 9. I was really looking forward to Ivy and also the new PointCloud. However, with PointCloud, I ran into a rather annoying thing right from the start. The individual elements are now very hard to select. Previously, all you had to do was hit a point to select an element. Now it's almost impossible and the only way to select is with Rect. selection.

Currently Forest assumes some MaxToA is installed, and initializes several Arnold data at startup. We'll try to fix it.

Tested on 3 other computers. All max 2024.
Arnold is installed by default in Max. Do you uininstall MaxToA manually ?
If so, please install it and test if crash is solved. Thanks.

« Last post by inkvisual on May 27, 2024, 08:59:03 AM »Hi guys,
Any update on the case? Is there any plan to look into the issue in the coming weeks?
This issue baceme very problematic for us, to be fair, we do not remember this being wrong in max 2022, things only went downhill after switch to 2024.
Thanks!

Forest Pro (*) / Re: Make grass for 15x15km terrain using visible range?
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on May 27, 2024, 08:27:58 AM »Hi,
For these purposes, the Limit to Visibility feature under the Camera roll-out should be switched off. Instead, it would be recommendable to adjust the Density/Scale Falloff if needed. I hope that helps, and if anything needs clarifying or if you need further assistance, please let us know.
Best regards,

Many thanks for reporting this. If possible, please feel free to send us your scene - preferably simplified and containing only the problematic object(s). Ideally, if you can reproduce it in a minimal scene, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

RailClone Pro (*) / Re: Faceted Distorted Reflections on Curved Surfaces
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on May 27, 2024, 08:18:38 AM »Hi,
Adding a Smooth modifier with the Auto Smooth option enabled on top of the RailClone object to reassign Smoothing Groups should help. But as you've mentioned, if that's not working in your case, feel free to send us your scene - preferably simplified and containing only the problematic object(s). Ideally, if you can reproduce it in a minimal scene, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
