Forest Pro (*) / After using Vertical grasses won't reset
« Last post by Sketchrender on October 17, 2025, 02:17:19 pm »Afternoon.
After using the vertical grasses, if I want use a normal flat area, it keeps going to vertical not flat.
How do you reset this?
Thank you
Phil

RailClone Pro (*) / Re: License server under Linux with wine
« Last post by JG_archviz on October 16, 2025, 10:42:29 am »maybe i was too hesitating.
After reboot it shows licenses are activated, and also hardware-id is the same as when it worked.
But server information says "No network licenses installed" ---- bummer.

Installing the Itoo License Manager worked so did the activation of the licenses...
Running fine so far. Will see if that will be a persistent sollution

Forest Pro (*) / Re: Very slow 3dsmax when making any new object with lots of forests in the scene
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on October 16, 2025, 08:48:54 am »Hi,
I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing these issues. Since Forest Pack 9.3.1, a problem where ForestSet triggered a Forest rebuild when modifying layers — even if ForestSet wasn’t using layers — has been fixed. Based on your description alone, it’s difficult to determine what might be causing the issue. Therefore, if possible, please send us your scene so we can review it here. Thanks in advance for any additional details you can share that might help us identify the source of the problem.
Best regards,

General - Off Topic / Re: updated plugins wont recognize the floating license server
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on October 16, 2025, 08:37:04 am »Hi,
I'm sorry to hear that you're facing these troubles. Could you please provide us with the first error or warning message (a screenshot would be ideal) that the user encountered? Also, please send us the log file from the Itoo Software License Manager. You can find it under the License Server tab by clicking on 'View Log'. This will help us analyze the problem further. Thanks in advance.
Let me mention that these different License Manager / License Server might be a bit confusing, but your configuration should be correct. The License Manager (currently version 1.6.2) is necessary for all license types (Stand-alone and Network). On the other hand, the License Server (currently version 1.5.0) is specifically required to manage the licensing service for Network licenses.
We appreciate any additional insights you can provide.

There is also a Tiny10 version which is even smaller but you need a windows 10 ISO that I couldn't find at the Microsoft website. I don't trust any other website to download the ISO so I just used Tiny11.

Forest Pro (*) / Very slow 3dsmax when making any new object with lots of forests in the scene
« Last post by K Gazzard on October 15, 2025, 10:50:42 pm »Hi there.
I have a scene with many forest objects (56), and at least 30 Forest Sets.
Things are painfully slow when the forests are active, particularly when creating new items, moving things around in the layer stack, duplicating items... every time I make a new object, it takes a long time before I can do anything. When drawing a new spline for example, I make the first click and then have to wait about 20 seconds before I can draw the spline. It's not related to camera visibility options, or number of items within objects, or viewport display.
I have no surfaces set to auto. The issues are resolved if I disable all of the FP objects, which is what I am finding I need to do to edit the file at all - even with everything set to frozen, the issue isn't resolved.
This is not unique to one file - all my projects have many FP objects and I have these slowdowns with all of them, frustrating and time consuming. I have just never got around to submitting it as a bug.
Another issue is that sometimes (Often when I first open the file) if I expand a layer with FP objects on it, it takes a long time to expand.
I downloaded the latest update today (v9.3.2) hoping from the changelog that the issue might be resolved (I read about the FP Sets causing issues with layers) but this hasn't resolved my issue.
I did try and delete all the fp sets out of my file, and this did fix it but I'm not sure if that was just because the FP's were now all broken and missing their geometry.
Any ideas?
