Would be great to be able to add an After Mesh Modifier Wind via script like in version 1 . Do you have any estimate when that would be implemented?

I'm migrating some functions that work ok in 1.9+ to 2.0+ but i can't find the equivalent methods. What are in GrowFx2 the equivalent for these methods: getPath <path_index_integer> Returns the indexed path, index are 1-based. getDistributor <path_index_integer> <distributor_index_integer> Returns the indexed distributor for the specified path, indexes are 1-based. getModifier <path_index_integer> <modifier_index_integer> Returns the indexed modifier for the specified path, indexes are 1-based. getMeshBuilder <path_index_integer> <mesh_index_integer> Returns the indexed mesh builder for the specified path, indexes are 1-based. getAfterMeshModifier Cheers!

Great! Thank you!

Hi, Can we have the CacheFileName property editable via maxscript? This is useful when collecting and repathing assets. Thanks

Thank you!

Hi, Is there a way to get the wind seed offset value with Maxscript? Using GrowFx 1.9.9 SP9 and 3dsmax 2020 returns an empty property when listing After Mesh Modifiers properties and Seed Offset seems to be one the missing: showproperties t.Wind .Enabled : boolean .ScaleFrequency : float .AxialRotation : boolean .MaxAngle : float .OrientForLeaves : boolean .Type : name .Looping : boolean .LoopingPeriod : time .AmplitudeMultiplier : float . .Stiffness : float .Stiffness_Graph .Flexibility : float .Flexibility_Graph

I guess selecting the object and activating the Modify panel before running the script will do for the time being. If there's a better solution without manipulating the UI I'm still interested.

Did more testing and created a simplified version to be able to reproduce the behavior. If the script runs while the GrowFX object is selected and the 3dsmax Modify panel is active the error doesn't occur. To recreate the error run this script in a scene with : - one GrowFX that has at least one Wind Modifier attached to any paths - no GrowFX object selected during execution - 3dsmax 2020 - GrowFX 1.9.9 SP9 ( fn removeAfterMeshWindModifiers oGFX = ( for x = 1 to oGFX.getNumPaths() do ( for y = (oGFX.getNumAfterMeshModifiers x) to 1 by -1 do ( gfxAfterMeshModifier = oGFX.getAfterMeshModifier x y if hasProperty gfxAfterMeshModifier "Stiffness" then ( oGFX.deleteAfterMeshModifier x y ) ) ) ) try(destroydialog DeleteAfterMesh)catch() rollout DeleteAfterMesh "Demo" width:280 height:100 ( button btn_1 "START" width:252.0 usePercentageWidth:true percentageWidth:90.0 height:40 on btn_1 pressed do ( if queryBox "Deleting after mesh modifiers. Are you sure?" beep:false then ( aGFX = for x in objects where classOf x == GrowFX collect x for gfx in aGFX do removeAfterMeshWindModifiers gfx ) ) ) createDialog DeleteAfterMesh )

Hi, I'm getting EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION when trying to delete all after mesh modifiers via maxscript( 3dsmax 2020 and GrowFX 1.9.9 SP9). I'm using this function - from a Rollout - while all paths are disabled: fn removeAfterMeshWindModifiers oGFX = ( for x = 1 to oGFX.getNumPaths() do ( for y = (oGFX.getNumAfterMeshModifiers x) to 1 by -1 do ( oGFX.deleteAfterMeshModifier x y ) ) ) Is there a better way to do this ? I suspect GrowFX updates the nodes while the script is traversing the paths tree and is causing this exception.
