PFlow - reading user data...
Published (2009-12-19 23:49:00)
you can do the same thing but much easier. You don't need to collect array of user channel values for every particle ( it kills memory pretty soon ). You can just store ParticleContainer itself on Procced event. Here is a scenario: 1. create custom Attribute for the patricleFlow of type #MaxObject (lets say "container"). 2. On Proceed event check NumParticles in current ParticleContainer and if the number more then ZERO...

callbacks.notificationParam()

I would just make separate functions and call the appropriate function in each callback. If you really want to go with the approach you are talking about (I would recommend just making separate functions, as mentioned above.. waaay easier), the node callback system offers something along the lines of what you are mentioning. It passes the name of the event being called to the function. I really like the system, as I think it offers a lot more...

You could simply apply a float script to the camera's fov track. You won't be able to change its value through the spinners, only through the float script.

Check the Maxscript Help File > MAX File Loading and Saving. You can use mergemaxfile with #deleteOldDups which according to the help file is equivalent to replace from the UI. There are other commands for handling of parenting, materials, etc.

Search the help file for "FileStream".

A FileStream class implements text file input and output in MAXScript. A FileStream value represents an open text file in MAXScript. Text file I/O is performed by calling functions on the FileStream value.

Dotnet is the only way that I can think of. Is that a direction that you want to go before I try and whip up some code?

Maybe you can use dotnet TrackBar-class:

(
dotnetControl myTrackBar " system.windows.forms.trackbar"

Are you using 64- bit Max? I have run into random system exception errors quite often with caDefs and 64-bit Max. Sometimes I could just close Max and wait for the process to completely end, then it would be fixed next time I started Max. Other times there would be nothing I could do to get rid of it.
The only reason I really started noticing it was because I had script controllers ...

Got a few issues here with it.
Doesn't seem to store the last image.
Scrolling the bottom slider opens another windows with a image in but none of the previous renders.
Also it would be nice to maintain all the options that come with the default Vfb - especially the mental ray properties such as reusing geometry switches.
