THANKS NEXT LIMIT

for the plugin



thanks Juan

I made a simple scene to test the new plugin for MAC

and i used one material from the MXM gallery

a concrete material

http://mxmgallery.maxwellrender.com/sea ... e=0&id=556

and i get this error
the material has 3 textures... but in archicad i think we only can apply one
maybe is this the error i don´t know

i expect anyone can help me.



thanks

best regards

goncalo

unstuffit your file and copy the file maxwell to the add-ons folder in archicad




than it works

see the info of the file maxwell and you see is the .gmx

OK i made some experiences

in material editor of Archicad checked the box disable unrelated controls
and made the material again for the concrete walls

-> the message of error ( above) appeared again

-> i changed the material for other from MXMgallery - cemento_facciavista

http://mxmgallery.maxwellrender.com/sea ... e=0&id=577

and the render worked

I tried with diferent materials and the same problem
same materials work, but more don´t work

anyone have a clue for this

Now a NEW BUG

i set a material to the floor, and rendered, just to see if other MXM material worked, to try to figure out what happening, and 1st material didn´t work and i tried other and worked... ok

then:

I unchecked the box disable unrelated controls

to:

to change the texture UWV the direction and the size of the the wood

i loaded the texture inside archicad, first added to archicad library, then

resized to the pretended size and position

and:

it rendered again like i never changed anything

so:

HOW CAN WE CHANGE THE TEXTURE FORMAT, SIZE, POSITION

Open the material 'Beton' in MXED and change all maps to projector 0



...or use the forum search.

Thanks JDHill

i used the forum search, and nothing related inside archicad was found...

and for the rest of the bugs any clue ?

and one more found

i set a material for water and worked fine

now it doesen´t render, and i didn´t change anything in that material since it rendered ok

Sorry, I know some about projectors, but nothing about Archicad.

thanks a lot

the 1st problem was solved, i change all the projector to 0 and work good... now i have to found if UWV is a BUG

About textures... i made a mistake in the manual i didn´t read one part about it



i gonna try this...

to bad no intel mac update, but its kind of crazy we need to do all this workarounds to make the pluging work correctly, why is this not addressed in the next limits office???
