Hi Kresimir,
let me describe in detail what is happening.
When I try to make a preview, all setting like time range and other "basic settings" are correct!, quality is set to 5, fume starts making preview. After few frames but not the whole simulated range it just stops. The main window of max gets refreshed and making preview stops.
shit Aero is turned OFF and all other Windows setting are set to performance, so no funky transparency or other bullshit is turned on!
Other thing is, sometimes something similar is happening on simulation.
The main window of MAX and the Fume windows, like preview window and settings widow falling into some king loop, refreshing them self over and over again.
(By refreshing I mean the rebuild of the graphics and fonts. Think of what happens if you drag one window over another, this in background gets updated/refreshed.)
MAX window goes white, then refreshes, after this fume window refreshes, than MAX window again, after than fume again and so on for ever...
When this happens, simulation gets blocked and is somehow waiting for the program windows to finish refreshing.
It is not happening all the time but very often.
BTW, can't the preview be made in background without displaying it in viewport?
cheers,
Bandu
