Krakatoa / FumeFX

Krakatoa for 3ds Max
1

Hello,

We’ve just got FumeFX 2.1, and Krakatoa 1.6. We can load FumeFX fine, and Krakatoa. However when we try to render a FumeFX sim in Krakatoa (or even slide the time slider). Then Krakatoa throws and error :

PRG: -----15/10/2010 20:41:26-------------------------- PRG: >Opening Krakatoa GUI... PRG: +Krakatoa GUI Floater OPENED in 984ms. PRG: >Initializing Krakatoa Renderer v1.6.0.43376...

We’re wondering if perhaps Krakatoa doesn’t like the new version of Fume ?. Everything else in Fume works fine so we’re a bit stumped.

Any help greatly appreciated as we’re (as ever) on a deadline.

thanks

Krakatoa does not currently support FumeFX 2.1.

I am working with the FumeFX developers to add this support to a future version of Krakatoa.

Ah, bugger … we just bought both on the same day and have been scratching our heads.

we’ll roll back to FumeFX 2 in the meantime.

Hi, I have found myself in the same position as Ben. Good to hear a fix is on the way. Any ETA on it?

FumeFX 2.1 support is in the latest beta build if you are comfortable using that. It is posted here: http://www.thinkboxsoftware.com/krakatoa-downloads/beta-builds/
