Migrating from Max 2013 to 2015

I have an education fixed node license on Max 2013. How do I move the RealFlow menu to Max 2015? Thanks.

Panels

RF comes up without any panels showing. Selecting Apply Layout doesn't give me the original layout. Can someone please tell me where I can select panels from the menus? The only way I can now use RF is by opening windows. Thanks.

Re: Morphing a flag from flowing particles

Thanks, Gus. I finally got one color working with Magic and Filter daemons. I then tried doing the second color in series after the first, making the first color inactive when the second color started to morph. It didn't work. I'll work on 3 different scenes then bring them together. Thanks again.

Morphing a flag from flowing particles

Attached is a jpg which might be the initial step to morph an American flag. Could someone please give me some ideas for setting up the workflow to do this? Thanks.

Re: Morphing A Logo

Thanks. Here's what I now have (attached). A couple of questions: 1) what can I do to get the mesh on the large object to become "holeless"? 2) Is it possible to get sharper edges on the bar and the handle like the logo? The particles are not filling the objects. Rather, they are on the faces. Would...

Morphing A Logo

I have been trying to get this logo (attached) to emerge from the water and have the water form the logo. My intention was then to drop the logo back into the water to become water again. I tried getting this effect using the Magic daemon with a particle emitter, but the particles don’t form the log...

Re: Thinking Particles to Realflow and Two Other Questins

Luis, it's been a year since I posted this question. I had found another solution without using Thinking Particles. Now, I'm back to trying to use tp in RF. When exporting from Max, I get "Warning: Could not convert to mesh node: Thinking001". I want blood to drip off a letter (such as an "S"). Hybr...

What Happens to Cache?

I cached a Hybrido sim and saved the file. When I reopened it, the sim wasn't there and the error was that it couldn't fine the Hy_Mesh01_00000.bin. And the sequence files weren't in the project folder. Why doesn't the cached sim appear when I reopen the project? Where is the cached file stored? tha...

Thinking Particles to Realflow and Two Other Questins

Is it possible to import Thinking Particles from Max to RealFlow? Exporting a Max generated object as an .sd file, doesn't work. It doesn't see Thinking Particles. Can a Max-animated-object have a RF emitter attached to it? I want to generate RF particles that travel in a helical path as animated in...
