The error you are seeing is because the version of FumeFX you are using is not supported in Krakatoa 1.6.1. We have just recently gotten the new SDK, so no version of Krakatoa currently supports it. Krakatoa 2.1 will be available near the end of May with support for FumeFX 3.
That’s an error from Krakatoa PRT FumeFX object when it fails to bind to the FumeFX 3.0 SDK. Can you double check the exact version numbers of Krakatoa & FumeFX? Can you do a test render with Krakatoa to verify the PRT FumeFX can generate particles for the Krakatoa renderer?
No your 3.0.1 simulation will work fine, there must be some sort of problem with Krakatoa’s handling of FumeFX. Can you tell me your 3ds Max version, and whether you are using 64bit or 32bit? The VoxelFlow.dll is found in Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2013\plugins\AfterWorks\Common\VoxelFlow.dll you should post the “file version” number from right-click > Properties > Details tab.
Thanks for the info. I’ve been testing with Max 2013 pretty much exclusively so I guess there’s a bug in 2012. I’ll get that looked at ASAP.
This should be fixed in 2.1.3. You can grab it here: thinkboxsoftware.com/krakato … ilds-beta/
