Krakatoa Camera Modifer - Missing in 1.5 ?

I needed to add DOF effects, and I was trying to see if the DOF would work with the direct FumeFX render, but the modifier for the camera is missing, like the channel modifier that Darcy mentioned in another thread . This may be known, but i kinda needed it ~_~

This IS strange. Out of curiosity, do you see the Krakatoa Channels Modifier (KCM)?
I am asking because all Krakatoa modifiers are defined in the same script file (Krakatoa_PRTChannel_Modifier.ms), so if you can see the KCM, you should see the rest, too.

What do you get if you type in the MAXScript Listener:

addModifier $Camera01 (KrakatoaCameraModifier())

This should add a camera modifier to Camera01 if the script was loaded on startup.
If it does not work, try running the file “Krakatoa_PRTChannel_Modifier.ms” from Main Menu>MAXScript>Run Script and see if anything will change.

When I started Max I did see some errors, and I just checked the MaxScript Listener…

and as you asked ‘addModifier $Camera01 (KrakatoaCameraModifier())’, returned undefined .

Please read the installation instructions on the Documentation page.

From the error it is obvious that you have not installed the Helium control needed by the node-based editor.
In the next Beta, it will be installed automatically. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thank you.

ha…

I thought I had installed that… oops .

Thankyou Darcy
