Popping with AB 3.2 and Max 7 - dlocke - 07-19-2005

Hi.

I've been getting a weird popping effect with AB and particle flow, even when the step size is very small.

I've read on the Discreet boards that there is an unofficial patch available and I was wondering if it is possible to get this patch. Or will an official patch be released in the near future?

Any help would be appreciated as we are working on a project that requires a lot of AB work.

Thanks in advance.

What kind of popping you are talking about? Turning on and off of AB clouds or jittering in AB shader?

The popping I'm getting is jittering in the shader.

Usually if I lower the step setting enough, that will remedy the jitter but it doesn't seem to be doing that anymore.

I've been using AB since 1.0 and consider myself very familiar with it, but I have never had this problem before. Not one that I couldn't fix anyway.

Any suggestions?

for me, lowering Step Size always helps. How about = 0.1 Still nothing?

Hi Darren,

Patch was for AB 3.1, but 3.2 should be fine.
Can you please post sample animation so we can see what the problem is?

Thanks,
