New bugs in 0.9.6

Deprecated Krakatoa MX Beta Bug Reports
#1

Hi all,



Spotted some new bugs, here is a nice report:



3DS Max v. : 9, 32bit

Krakatoa ver : 0.9.6


  1. A mblur problem. A screenshot can be seen here: http://cravenous.com/mb_err.jpg

    It moves the two samples to the sides of the camera space. Only occurs with loaded partitions.



    Example scene: http://cravenous.com/mb_problem.max



    Steps to reproduce:
  1. Open scene
  2. Create partitions for the animation, any number of partitions
  3. Load, render with MB.






  1. An unhandled error, when trying to save particles with PF turned off.



    Steps to reproduce:
  1. Push the “save particles” button with PF turned off.



    Had a few other errors, but was not able to reproduce them.



    Thanks,

    Hristo

I was able to reproduce this on my home machine using the 0.9.6 build you were using.



There were problems opening the file on my 64bit machine in the office (PFlow and Max related, not Krakatoa). Will try to confirm that it still happens with the new 0.9.7 build if I can get the scene to render at all there…





Thanks!

Oh, an the temporary workarounds:



A: Uncheck “Use Node Transforms” in the Loader.

This will place all particles at the absolute location they were recorded at and fix the MBlur problem.



B: Go to frame 0, select the Loader, right-click the Time Slider and set a Position Key. Go to the last frame and do the same. Now that the position is keyframed with 2 keys, the MBlur works correctly.



If you are animating the Loader’s transforms anyway, it would fix the problem as a side effect ;o)


It looks like the Node Transform is processed incorrectly when doing motion blur, assuming some invalid positions over the time segment.

Thanks a lot!

Note that the Motion Blur of PRT Loader bug was fixed in 0.9.8.

Please retest to confirm the fix on your side.
