When I use ThinkingParticles and RealFlow .bin files sametime, I get this message on Frost Log Window.
“ERR: BuildMesh: get_channel_type_convertor_function() - Conversion of channel “Age” from type float32 to type int32 is not an allowed conversion.”
And cannot create Frost mesh.
If I use each particles separately, I have no problem.
As a workaround, if you have the Real Flow Render Kit, I think you could use the RealFlowFileBirth + RealFlowFileUpdate operators to load your data into Particle Flow, and use the Particle Flow as the Frost particle source.
