We posted a build 35021 of Beta 3 on March 4th, but a beta site found a bug in partitioning without Box #1 / Box #3 installed, so we replaced that version with build 35027 on March 5th. If you downloaded the previous build and don’t have Box #1 and Box #3 installed, you might want to get the new build.
The list of new features is found at the same location as last time,
franticfilms.com/software/su … _notes.php
The highlights are
*Krakatoa now works with Thinking Particles 4
*The Thinking Particles object can now be used as GeoVolume to produce particles inside its shapes.
*The Legacy Particle Systems can also be used as GeoVolumes to produce particles inside their shapes. (Use Mesher to do this with PFlow)
*Particles with invalid (infinite) positions will be skipped instead of rendering at the origin.
*Partitioning process will check for used Mapping Channels in Particle Flow and warn if they are not specified for saving.
*Krakatoa Build string is now included in the Presets/History records.
*[>>] Options buttons added to the two filter fields in the Presets and History rollout
*Cache rebuilding of Presets and History now split in two functions - if one of the caches is outdated, the other will not be rebuilt.
*Removing the Position channel from the Save Channels list is not possible anymore.
*Render Elements will be removed when Krakatoa is assigned as the current renderer.
*New MacroScript and icon for applying the GeoVolume modifier to one or more selected objects were added.
*The Scale Density By Material Opacity bug was fixed.
*The Cache override in slave mode was not hooked up correctly in Beta 2, now it is.
Enjoy!
