Forest Pack Pro and Lite 5.2 are now available. This update includes several important fixes and improvements.
Forest Pack 5.2.0
New Features
- Added General->Log Level. Setting it to Normal/Debug, Forest generates extra information while rendering. Max log file is stored at:
C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsmax\[max version]\ENU\Network\Max.log - Added log information when rendering with Mental Ray. Check it at "Rendering->Render Message Window", or in Backburner logs.
- Added support for long paths in registry configuration values.
Improvements
- Improved Forest Effect to scatter items on displaced surfaces. The process is now simplified and surfaces can now be any shape before being displaced.
- Custom Edit uses local axis of each item, instead axis of the Forest object.
Fixes
- Fixed bug which would create duplicate names with imported library objects (in 'forest_templates' layer).
- Fixed warning error in Octane with disabled Forest objects.
- Fixed Areas->Paint tool when using large brush on detailed areas.
- Fixed bug updating first frame rendered by a node on Backburner jobs (Mental Ray only)
- Fixed rare crash in V-Ray with Fake Shadows.
- Fixed updating issue with Forest Edge.
- Fixed crash on Max close.
- Fixed errors in Corona material library.
