Problem

Description:

Deforming modifiers (eg. noise, bend, taper, etc) don't deform the Ox Guides in 3Ds MAX 2014.

In 3Ds MAX 2013 all modifiers worked perfectly. In MAX 2014 they don't do anything...

It is a big problem for us because almost all of our Ox setups have used some kind of deformed modifications. Is it possible to fix that?

Steps to Reproduce:

- Run 3Ds MAX 2014

- Create a sphere

- Add Ox Guides to the surface

- Add a Noise modifier and try to change the strength... nothing will happen

Which version of Ornatrix are you using? In V2 you might need to select the guides (using edit guides) for the deformers to be applied to them.

Hi Marsel,

Thank you for your quick response. Using the edit guides selection have fixed our problem. Smile

We have used Ornatrix V2.3... in MAX 2013 and we are using Ornatrix V2.5.9.0 in MAX 2014. The reason of confusion was that in MAX 2013 we didn't need any further Edit Guides to deform the guides with additional deformer modifiers.

Anyway our older setups are working perfectly now with minimal plus efforts.

Thanks again, and also thank you for this robust hair simulation plugin!
