narsov Posted December 3, 2020 Report Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hi @Eduard, I'm trying to make a shape of the branches with object slice (see image) and when I adjust the value for distance it crashes immediately. Is there a new way to do it or this is a bug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narsov Posted December 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 Hi @Eduard, Please find attached the scene file, I'm using latest 3ds max 2021. Thanks hedge spiral shape.max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduard Posted December 4, 2020 Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 Hi narsov, I never found the problem. But maybe it's due to Editable Poly, I don't know for sure, but sometimes it crashes and it's better to use Editable mesh. We'll try to find out from Autodesk support. I've completed your model and you can see: hedge spiral shape_1.max You can also avoid using the slice object, and use only the spiral GrowFX modifier. Thanks!

narsov Posted December 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 Thanks @Eduard, but, I can't open it. When GFX is starting to load it crashes 3ds max. What can I do to open the file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eduard Posted December 4, 2020 Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 I saved in a newer version of GrowFX, just forgot to install the current version. Perhaps there is a bug in GrowFX for max 2021, since I tried to open it in the current version in debug mode, and everything was fine there. But in GrowFX for max 2021 there is some kind of glitch. I'll check everything now and send you an update. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eduard Posted December 4, 2020 Report Share Posted December 4, 2020 I sent you an update, and you can try. I also updated this model a bit: hedge spiral shape_2.max Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
