We've updated version 1.9.9 SP10 for 3dsMax 2022, as well as version 2.0, which includes version 1.9.9 SP10.

 

Thanks again!

[Convert to separate editable meshes + retain original pivots?]

additional in grow fx2 is there any posibility to get acccess to those nodes?

$.getNumPaths()

$.getMeshBuilder 1 1

and all these good things are gone :((

 

We'll try to restore these MaxScript functions, but maybe it will change and will work as with nodes.
It's just that the system has been completely changed, and now instead of different components we've nodes of different types with continuous numbering.

 

Thanks!

Приветствую!

Было бы хорошо сделать возможность переименовывать Public Parameters вот в этом окошке. Когда их много, очень не удобно лазить каждый раз и искать ноды.

Ок, сделаем. Также можно будет добавить кнопку для выделения ноды, чтобы найти ее в редакторе, так сказать.

И еще, меня просили добавить такой же менеджер для нод Value.

 

1 hour ago, 3DPaz said:

Один неудобный момент еще. Когда выводишь параметры эти. Value можно крутить больше чем нужно. получается в пустую.

Имеется ввиду ноды Public? Если да, то проблем нет, сделаем. Все-таки каждый параметр имеет свои лимиты, и можно будет их использовать.

Но это будет работать только при создании новой ноды из какого либо параметра. Если просто подключать уже существующую ноду, то ничего изменяться не будет.

 

Спасибо!

Hi Yang,

 

We used the Cylinder Mesh with Radial offset curve.

Hi Timursq,

 

I always recommend connecting Wind nodes to After Mesh Modifiers, most likely this is the problem.

1. Is Student version viable for commercial work? (like corona renderer software)

Yes, you can use it for commercial work.

2. Is it once-paid license or subscription for a month/year? Unfortunately I couldn't find any info i FAQ

 

With the release of version 2.0, we've introduced annual maintenance. This is for updates only, but the plugin will work even if your license expires.
You'll be able to use, also download and activate versions released while your license was valid.

After the first year of use, you can renew your subscription for the same price as an individual license.

 

Thanks!

Sorry to bother again but is there any estimate on the fixed release date ...I am working on a project and this bug has already cost me 2 days of RnD and because project is on  version 2 moving back to version 1 will again be like working from scratch 

Thank you 

 

 

 

 

I don't know exactly how long it will take to fix this.

As a solution, you can set Levels = 1 in the Path distributor node.  But then you need to copy the path with all accompanying nodes, to keep the multilevel branches.

 

Thanks!

Hi anujraghav,

 

Yes you're right, it seems the new random system has some problems.
We'll investigate this and fix it asap.

 

Thanks a lot!

[Network rendering using redshift.]

10 hours ago, tsuda said:

Thank you Eduard.
What is the recommended renderer?

 

Corona and FStorm renderers work with GrowFX Demo. VRay should work as well (but I haven't tested it now).

 

Other renderers hopefully will work too, but I haven't tested it.
You can try it yourself using their demo version.

 

Thanks!

[Network rendering using redshift.]

Hi tsuda,

 

I checked the GrowFX full version, and it renders perfectly:

 

But I checked in the demo, and due to limitation on converting to mesh, Redshift will not render the object.

 

Thanks!

[Angle divergence/ Path Distribution]

Hi Terri,

 

As I understand it, you need to set Turn axis = 180 degrees in the Path distributor settings.
