phantom not working

hello



Max 8

XP 64

4 gigs ram

Krak 9.9



I have a render event set to phantom placed in my flow,

click generate partions, no parts are calculated.



Set the Global Render node to Geometry, and it works just fine.



only tested in 1 file, but worked correctly in 9.6





thx

Also tried setting the render node to each diffrent option, with no luck.



Seems only the global render node is working.



cheers

Can you post what the Flow looks like?

(screenshot or ASCII art)



Do you have both a Global Render operator and a Local Render operator?



If you have



Emitter: Render Geometry

|

Event01: Render Phantom



in Krakatoa 0.9.9 you will get Geometry.



Surprisingly enough, in Scanline it is the opposite, looks like Local Render operators are evaluated first and never overwritten regardless of the order set in the PView (Local>Global or Global>Local).



I thought we matched Scanline, looks like we did something wrong.

In earlier Krakatoa builds, the behavior of operators was different but not correct either.



In 0.9.9, if you want particles in an event to be Phantoms, remove the global Render Operator and add a local Render Operator to each event. We will fix this next week.

I just simmed the partions in 9.6 and I am rendering in 9.9, heh hack hack.
