The installer of FumeFX 3.0.2 for 3dsMax 2013 64bit does not copy mentalray include file (AWShaders.mi).

Please check.
Thanx.

Hi

I have been doing some simulations in FumeFX 3 testing the new color feature. What I have found is that if you switch on Cubic Interpolation all the colours turn black. If you switch off Cubic Interpolation and re-sim the colors all work again. a Bug ?

Thanks

My fume fx3 sims just keep stopping for some reason.
They are not huge sims and I have enough disk space and memory.
I cannot figure this one out, and I have to use fumefx on my current job.

winxp 64 16 gig ram quadro 4000 i7 @4.2 ghz

max2012 fumefx 3.0.1

any ideas?

Any idea why?

Hello,
I have a question; At my workplace we use dreamscape and afterburn for our scenes, we 've recently gotten a three node renderfarm. I've installed dreamscape and afterburn on all three. Do I have to contact you for activation for all three or is there something in dreamscape and afterburn on my workstation that will allow the activation of all three nodes?

Thanks

Hey Guys,

can anyone please share with what would be the quickest way to render Depth of field with FumeFx? I'm not looking for a solution at post with a Zdepth pass, but DOF at render time. I have transparent smoke overlapping in the same grids sometimes and for that matter the Zdepth is absolutely useless.

Thank in advance, kinda crucial that i find a solution asap, my shots look way too flat sometimes because of that.

ANyone any experience with FinalDOF or others?

Cheers,

A.

any news?

Hi,
I already wrote twice to support and once to Kresimir, about parameters that cannot be set from MXS even though they seem to be able to.
Could anyone please confirm that my mails have been received?

My Machine's got 36G Memory.
Fumefx simulation just stops as it gets to the frame 265 though I have enough Memory available.

I am still checking my memory and have no probem (20G more memory available yet)

Here is the log below

I am rendering from wavelet (100 frames) biggest file in the sim is 320096KB. 3D max crashes at frame 87 everytime. I have 12 gb ram so the filesize should not be an issue.
I 'm using mental ray.

Can anyone help?

I have reported this to you earlier without getting any sensible answer.
