RAIL CLONE 3D MAX 2015 GENERATOR

“Always Show Markers/Banking" option in RCSpline.keeps gizmos visible when the spline is selected.Includes Generator->"X Rotation" and Banking. Return direction vectors along the spline for the current segment. Added XSplineXDirection, XSplineYDirection, XSplineZDirection attributes to expressions.Includes Generator->X Rotation and banking. Added expression attribute 'XSplineXRotation': rotation angle along the spline for current segment (-PI to PI radians).You can overcome it by dragging the gizmo multiple times. The angle can be any value (including greater than 360), but there is a limitation of -180/180 using the gizmo.Banking Smoothness can be adjusted with the new Generator->Banking->Smoothness value.The Banking Angle can be forced for a specific segment, using a Transform operator’s new Deform->"Override Banking" parameter.

When using multiple RC SPline modifiers, the Banking modifier can be selected per generator using the Rules->Banking->Modifier settings.Banking points can be adjusted interactively in the viewport, or by modifying their parameters in the rollout (Percent / Angle).Basically, it works as Generator->X Rotation, but at multiple spline positions. It lets you adjust the banking angle along the spline.Added modifier modes to Generator->Evenly->Adaptive: Even, Odd and Any.Each item has an associated float value, which is returned as the parameter's output.This enables a parameter to be selected from a list of predefined items, which are shown in Max rollout using a combo list.Added a new type of Numeric Parameter called Selector.When a Group is deleted from the scene, it's removed from RailClone as well. Groups cannot be 'embedded' within a RC object.It's not possible to pick a group directly from the scene. To assign a group, use Selector by Name (H on the keyboard).Added support for 3DS Max groups in Segments.Non-geometric segments are previewed in the viewport with a Material ID defined in the Display->"Non-geom Mat.ID" parameter.If it affects your style, we recommend using the Segment’s Fixed Size feature. The size of some non-geometric objects may not be reliably read by RailClone or it may change depending on the active viewport.As a workaround, objects are inserted in the scene before rendering and removed once completed.

There is currently no native support for other renderers.

Includes native support for instancing lights in V-Ray 2.1 and above.

Added experimental support for non-geometric objects (including lights).

For the first run, you must add it using the Lister 'Settings' button.

Added Proxy Cache mode to RailClone Lister.

You can see the current proxy size in the Display rollout.

The size of Proxy Cache depends on the object’s complexity, including the number of segments and their geometry.

When you want to change it, just set Proxy mode back to 'Disable', make any changes, and then bake it again.

A baked object cannot be modified or edited.

To use a Proxy Cache as a segment in another RC object you must disable Display > Use Instancing Engine before enabling the cache.

It creates and saves the proxy (overriding the file if it exists), and returns a description error when failed.

For External, use $.setProxyMode 2 "proxyFileName.rcproxy".

For Embedded, use $.setProxyMode 1 "".

For Disabled, use $.setProxyMode 0 "".

Proxy Cache can be managed from Maxscript using $.setProxyMode.

If you change the renderer, we suggest regenerating the Proxy.

Results may vary depending on the render engine that was active when the cache was baked.

'Use Segment Material' and non-geometric objects are supported in Embedded mode only.

Note that this does not affect the render.

The viewport display is limited to Boxes or Quick Mesh depending on the mode that was active when the proxy was created.

This is especially useful for complex styles. Baked objects load and render much faster because RailClone doesn't need to perform so many calculations to rebuild them.

This new feature allows you to bake a RailClone object into the scene or an external file.
