  • Missing maps checkbox bug & particles

    Really odd one...

    Max 2010 64 bit Vray 2.30.01 Vista 64

    Super spray emits particles, but when rendered using vray with the "check for missing maps" checkbox ticked, the particles do not move. They render if the time slider is moved to a frame in the animation though, but don't move in the render frame by frame.

    So, if you move slider to frame 40, you get the particles from frame 40 in frame 1. Or frame 40. But they don't move. Scrubbing the slider within or watching the wireframe, or preview or using scanline, they render fine. In vray they render fine, but as soon as "check for missing maps" checkbox is ticked vray only renders the frame that you can see in wireframe and the particles don't progress.

    Sounds to me like some weird 3ds Max issue. Does it happen in newer versions of 3ds Max? Can you give us the scene?

      Yep, it's odd. Haven't tried it in 2013. But it all works fine until missing maps is checked in 2010

      What email address shall we send it to?

              Great. Many thanks. Not critical as obviously the checkbox isn't needed for rendering.

                Hello DP,

                We would like to inform you that this issue has been fixed.
                The fix is now available only in the Nightly Builds and it will be probably available in the next 3.x patch.
