Hi, Using MS 1.97 with 3dsmax 2019 and Vray 3.7 latest(not sure if vray version matters). MultiScatter doesn`t update the preview in the viewport using an animated proxy using `points`. I`m using `points` and an animated vray proxy of a person (although an old proxy) but the preview in the viewport ...

Great, thanks Anvar.

hi anvar,
thanks for responding. strange it was working with the license we have now, it makes me think maybe i wasn`t running 1.3.6.11 after all ?

cheers

Hi,

We`re running Multiscatter 1.3.6.11 on 3dsmax2016 but today it says `License not found`. License tool says it expires in 2023 ? (we have 2 licenses)

I haven`t changed anything so has 1.3.6.11 expired or something ?

thanks

I`m hoping it`s not just my system, I did test this in a br...

hi, sorry to bring this up again. i played a bit more with the stadium scene and i`ve narrowed down the issue to scattering type `regular pattern` . using this it`s extremely slow, switching to random distribution and it`s very fast . there is no equivalent slowdown using regular pattern on a surfac...

hi anvar, i`ve just tried the updated version and it is a lot quicker, not realtime, maybe 5-6 seconds for timeline to update. interestingly i tried loading the original `old` file and it`s about the same, around 5 seconds. however in the stripped down version of my scene (just the `MS FANS` , 1 fan...

hi anvar,

I`ll give downloading that a go.
As for the fans, as i mentioned it never used to be an issue, it just sort of crept in over time.
I`ll try new version first.

thanks
