Otherwise, instances get scattered in each frame separately and that might cause anomalies. Temporal consistency – When enabled, instances are scattered in the selected Rest-pose frame and stick to the surface, even if it gets deformed in other frames. Changing this value causes random permutations of the scattered objects(s). Random seed – Determines the random distribution used. Instead it serves as a measure to avoid scattering too many instances and causing a crash. Note that this option does not determine how many instances are created. limit – Limits the maximum number of instances. This mode is useful when scattering dust particles inside a room, fish in an aquarium, books on a bookshelf and similar. Keep in mind that bounding boxes are cube-shaped, therefore using this mode on a round object scatters instances in a cube around it.
In that case, instances are distributed in the area enclosed by the spline.ģD - In bounding box – Scattering mode where objects are scattered inside the object's bounding box. Closed splines can also be used with this mode. It doesn't matter if the surface is horizontal, vertical or if it is part of a complex 3D object. Open or closed splines can be used for this.ĢD - On surfaces – Scattering mode where objects are scattered on surfaces. \\fileserver\ScatterPlugin\ChaosScatterMax2023.dlt.Ĭlose 3ds Max and reopen it, Chaos Scatter plugin should be loaded and ready for usage.ġD - On splines – Scattering mode where objects are scattered along splines. Launch 3ds Max and from the Customize menu select Configure User and System Paths.įrom 3rd Party Plug-Ins click Add and browse the path where ChaosScatterMax20NN.dlt file is copied, e.g. It sets an environment variable for 3ds Max 2023 and then, opens 3dsmax.exe. "CHAOSSCATTER_3DSMAX_20NN_LOAD_PATH=\\fileserver\Scatter\3ds Max 20NN" You can download an example. Pay attention to the version of 3ds Max in both environment variable name and value - they should be the same: bat file or system/user environment variables). Set the following environment variable (you can use. Replace the 20NN with your 3ds Max version. \\fileserver\ScatterPlugin\ChaosScatterMax2023.dlt. Copy "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 20NN\Plugins\ChaosScatterMax20NN.dlt" to the file server, e.g.Copy the " C:\Program Files\Chaos Group\Scatter" folder to the file server, e.g.Install V-Ray for the respective 3ds Max version you use.To load Chaos Scatter files from a non-default location, follow the steps below:
