Andy Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Hi Pylon, I installed the 3.2.1.4 upgrade and try to generate 300 frames with 8.5.4 and the latest plug-in (Mac Pro 4,1 with 12 Gb RAM and OSX 10.10.5). With the latest early build formZ took few minutes, now with 3.2.1.4 plug-in took 1 hour and 40 minutes (with base animation disable). I installed the 3.2.1.4 plug-in because early build worked great but with same 300 animation frames some random frames (9 of 300) had mxs trees scatter moved different for the rest of frames. I tryed to generate manuallt only the problematic frames but the scatter mxs are moved again. (i don't to disabled base animation with the early build). I don't know if with the 3.2.1.4 plug-in and base animation disabled the generation frames long time is aspected; The project is too big to send you but if the animation will the same frames problem i consider to send you formZ project with all textures and dipendencies.

Andy Posted July 18, 2016 Author Share Posted July 18, 2016 Hi Pylon, I have another problem with 3.2.1.4, Studio won't open; I report to maxwell forum this problem: http://www.maxwellrender.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=135&t=44435&sid=8d6441119b0d1ea15db208cbdd0ee4e4 Mihai recommended me the 3.2.1.5 early build, Is compatible with 3.2.1.4 formZ Plug-in?

pylon Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Hi Andrea, Unless you have a very specific reason for doing so, always leave "Base MXS for Static Entities" enabled. It will result in very fast output of animation frames. Disabling "Base MXS for Static Entities" is expected to take a long time to export each frame (and the MXS frames will be very large.) Scatter objects should work fine with "Base MXS for Static Entities" enabled. Can you let us know why you turned it off? Please try again with this option enabled, and let us know if that works. I'm not sure why Studio wouldn't open on your computer (it opens here). 3.2.1.5 early build should work fine with the 3.2.1.4 formZ Plugin (however, I have not tried that).

After a restart Studio work well here too. Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 Hi Pylon, this is the wrong movie with mxs scatter trees changed in 9 random frames with the last early build. The problem is gone with 3.2.1.4 and disabling the base animation but I don't know which are the choice that resolve the problem. Andrea.

pylon Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 We are unable to diagnose the source of the problem without your formZ project; feel free to send it if you'd like and we will have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 Hi Pylon, I tried to reproduce the mxs scatter problem but with 3.2.1.4 and "Base MXS for Static Entities" enabled the problem is gone. Andrea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
