Compatibility issue?

I was having problems rendering matte shadows on my render farm. so I upgraded my Krakatoa version to 2.1.4.48313. After I did this I can’t prt with the version of Thinking particles that I am using (version 4). I get an error that says it’s not supported yet. I was running one version earlier of krakatoa and it was prt’ing just fine with the version of Thinking Particles 4 that I am using. So why can’t I prt now with this new build? I did not see anywhere in the release notes that this version was for TP 5 specifically, only that it worked with it now, unless that’s not the case. Thanks.

2.1.4 is a Public Beta build, and we accidentally broke support for earlier versions of TP when we added TP 5 support. Then Cebas released TP 5.1 and broke that, too. :wink:
We will have a fix out soon that addresses both problems. For now, see if you can revert back to your previous version of Krakatoa until the fix is posted.
Sorry for the inconvenience!

Just a heads up that we have posted a 2.1.5 build of Krakatoa which is supposed to fix the issues with Thinking Particles.
We have added support for TP 5.1 and fixed support for TP 4 and earlier:

Here is the Change Log for it:

Please let us know whether it works for you or not.
This is still a Public Beta and might have other issues.
