Element tracking not matching up - Dave_GroundShatter - 02-20-2025

Hello

I may be misunderstanding the documentation here. Wall is an identical clone of Wall Spawn here. The system is set to use Element Tracking with Save Element Index on the Birth operator using Wall Spawn, Wall has a tyParticleSkin operator also using Match Elements by ID with my understanding that the bricks in this mesh would track the ones in the flow, but the ID's are incorrectly assigned.

Is this a bug or am I using it incorrectly? Thank you

You'd have to post the scene so I can take a closer look...

Sure thing

Looks like a bug that went unnoticed - I changed the way elements are extracted with the release of PRISM last year - try reverting to a build older than the initial PRISM release (ie, a build older than v1.100) and see if it works. In the meantime it should be fixed in the next build.

Reverting to Max 2024 and using build v1.029 does work, however the tyVat modifier does not work on this build and I need to use them both together. Seems I might need to wait for a new release to be able to progress.

Thanks for taking a look.
