Description:

Hey Marcel,

Just had this error pop up...it happened while i was trying to change particle radius size of a box/liquid from 0 to 0.2m...

"Flex library not compatible with this version of Lucid. Please check your installation".

Interesting. Does it happen if you choose another radius for the particles?

What if you save and reload the scene, does it happen after reload as well?

Hi Marsel, I'm seeing the same error too with a particular scene.
I've attached the .max file to this message. 


I opened a scene that I'd previously done with Rayfire and wanted to compare its results to lucid. 
I find that every time I attempt to sim this scene, the "Flex library" error appears. 
Lucid seems to run totally fine if I build a new scene from scratch. 
Using the latest 0.2.05826 build.

Sorry if this is user error on my part! 
But I did try to completely clean the scene of all Rayfire info before building it up again with Lucid.

I opened the attached scene and tried to sim it with a debug build. It seems it is hitting the particle limit. I got about 2.7M particles generated in it, which is more than the 1.3M limit. I think this is what causes the error to pop up, although we need to make it clearer what is happening than the generic one you are getting.

Hi Marsel, 

OK thanks for the followup. That sounds great. Knowing that, I simplified the Geo and it did indeed sim.
