Ornatrix V8 appears to be missing the scattering map option for mapping in the Mesh From Strands modifier, only has the channel option. Is this a bug or was this option removed in V8? I am using 3ds Max 2021.

Documentation does not reflect this: https://ephere.com/plugins/autodesk/max/ornatrix/docs/8/Mesh_from_Strands_Modifier.html

Kind Regards.

Sorry for the late reply, Just following up on this, the option is now present, but does not appear to function.

I did not test with revision 8.1.7.35298, but tested with 8.1.7.35310 and 8.1.7.35345 using both a texturemap and a procedural noise map.

Is there a option im missing, see attached.

I reinstalled version 7, and this option works as expected (also attached screenshot).

Note: in the ScatterMap_v8-1-7-35345.PNG image, "Current Channel" = 2, but tested with it being 1.

Kind regards.
