Hey igamaximus, I had a look
Hey igamaximus,
I had a look at the lofts and unfortunately none of the parameters are exposed to maxscript.
This happens with a lot of old stuff in max as maxscript is still a just a plugin (for max 1 or 2 I think), its not native.
You will have to ask autodesk to expose the parameters in maxscript and then they will work in Modifier Zorb.
Sorry!!
Sure, let me have a look at
Sure, let me have a look at it...
Loft objects support
Jordan, can you please provide Loft objects support with your amazing tool? Currently, there are no visible parameters of this objects type.
Thank you very much.
Thanks for the bug report
Thanks for the bug report Carol, Ill have a look. Should be an easy fix
Ky_Trail issues
The runtime error doesn´t happen with other Ky plugins (like milkyway) neither with any other plugin or modifier.
Just only with Ky_trail
Ky_Trail issues
I have problems trying to save the Ky_trail settings, the plugin works ok getting the atmospherics properties of Ky_trail, but as soon as I press save, it returns an error:
--Runtime error: Error opening bitmap:
Did anyone have this problem?
You would have to select the
You would have to select the objects that have the materials assigned then use the "selected" mode in mod zorb.
edit active material slot

Thanks raijard, nexocomun has
Thanks raijard,
nexocomun has sent me the ini files below and it doesnt seem to be the issue. I will try to have a look this weeekend but have been very busy.
Im sure its some small and stupid bug...
You dont need to do a system restore to get 2.8.01 working, like I said below:
The file is called ModModZorb_Setup.ini and gets created in you plugcfg directory
(run getdir #plugcfg in maxscript to get the directory name, should be: "C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\ - 64bit\ENU\en-US\plugcfg")
Try Deleting this file and running ModModZorb again.
Otherwise just keep using 2.7 until I release a fix.
2.7.06 did the job
Hello Jordan,
Sorry for the late answer.
Thank you very much for uploading old version 2.7.06 again. I have to say it works like charm.
Unfortunately I have an important submission so I wont risk the system trying to run version 2.8.01 again. As I mentioned, the only way to make it work again was restoring the system, which I'd rather not doing by now.
However, I would be happy to send you the .ini file later on if it can be of any help.
Congratulations in any case, this script is an amazing piece of work.
