Fumefx loader

Krakatoa for 3ds Max
1

Hi,

New to krak. I’ve done a fumefx sim which I want to run through krak.

I’m trying to emulate a frozen time effect and want krak to load only one cache file (frame) of my fumefx sim and use that for my entire animation.

Imagine a 360 camera moving around particles frozen in time, this should be pretty simple no? Any thoughts on how to do this would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Patrick

either set fume to play only one frame and hold before and after. this will still make the PRT FumeFX load that frame every frame and create a pointcloud for it, which will be slow. Better, cache the PRT FumeFX for one frame, and then load that cache into a PRt loader, and set it to hold that frame. this will be very fast :wink:
