OakCorp Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 An element name will become incorrect if a previous scene is loaded by 3ds Max 2013. Maybe, it is a unicode problem of 3dsMax 2013. I am checked on 3ds Max 2013 English and Japanese Language mode on Windows Japanese. Before 3dsMax 2012 with no problem.

LeonM Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Hi Eduard, Thank you for this release. I appreciate you being prompt with updating GrowFX to support 2013. I have also noticed that opening a file in 2013 that was initially created in 2012 swaps to using the Japanese language. I am from Australia and using the English language. This issue does not occur when creating a new GrowFX object in a fresh 2013 scene. It's not a big deal, but I thought I would flag this also. Thanks again, Leon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
