RailClone Pro (*) / Re: Overlapping tiles by half
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on December 01, 2025, 01:39:36 pm »Hi,
For this purpose, you can use negative values for the Padding parameter - in this case, the Top Padding. To ensure consistent values across all Segments, the recommended approach is to use Transform Operators with the Top Padding Parameter exported and wired to a Numeric Parameter. Please find attached a modified version of your scene (251201_RAILCLONE_TILED_ROOFS_ITOOSOFT_REV.max). I hope this helps.
Best regards,

RailClone Pro (*) / Overlapping tiles by half
« Last post by OT3376 on December 01, 2025, 01:04:22 pm »Hi. Another tile problem. Probably a simple solution. I want to have the tiles half overlapping as in the attached screenshot but any parameters I adjust seems to break it.
maxfile attached.
Thanks

RailClone Pro (*) / Re: Tiles offset on hipped roof incorrect
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on December 01, 2025, 11:37:26 am »Hi,
Using the Adaptive mode for the Default Input doesn’t work well in all scenarios. In this case, switching to the Tile mode would be recommended. Please find attached a modified version of your scene (251201_RAILCLONE_TILED_ROOFS_ITOOSOFT.max).
I hope this helps.

RailClone Pro (*) / Tiles offset on hipped roof incorrect
« Last post by OT3376 on December 01, 2025, 11:19:37 am »Morning all.
I have a problem with the offset of the tiles on a hipped roof. Each end is ok but in the middle the offset drifts. Screenshot and maxfile attached.
Thanks.

Forest Pro (*) / Re: Scattering by distance to edge
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on November 28, 2025, 02:07:51 pm »Hi Gabriel,
There are several possible approaches. In addition to the previously mentioned Change Items by Distance to Boundary effect, using the Match Color ID on Map feature driven by a map (for example, a Gradient Ramp) should work as well. Please feel free to send us / upload your scene and we'll check it here.

Forest Pro (*) / Scattering by distance to edge
« Last post by Gabriel17 on November 28, 2025, 01:56:13 pm »Greetings everyone,
I'm trying to use items by distance to boundary effect so I could create "rows" of plants based on distance to the splines i just draw. That way I could control which IDs would be close to the edge, on the center of it and the ones in the middle.
So far my geometry list is the following:
I'm almost sure i need to use distance to boundary effect, but so far no sucess.
thanks

Forest Pro (*) / Re: Garbage/Animation layers in base files

Regarding the .fp files of ForestIvy, as you pointed out, is a propietary format which let us to distribute the libraries without depending of the 3DS Max version.
These files can be loaded in 3DS Max using File->Import. Same for RailClone with the .rail format.

« Last post by Erik Clemens on November 28, 2025, 11:10:35 am »Th eproblem was not in a ForestIvy object, but in a corrupt object which was used as a surface for Ivy and had animation layers that somehow could not be cleared. After remodelling everything works OK now. Sorry for the misconception
