Comments on: How to make parametric array. http://www.torabiarchitect.com/blog/?p=3 Digital Architecture & Technology Fri, 24 Aug 2012 16:17:39 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.38 By: Milan Sijakov http://www.torabiarchitect.com/blog/?p=3&cpage=1#comment-2980 Wed, 09 Mar 2011 17:30:45 +0000 http://www.torabiarchitect.com/blog/?p=3#comment-2980 Helo Ali,

I get the same mistake as few mentioned above.
–Type error: Call needs function or class, got:undefined,
and also Parametric Array-createParametricArray.mcr window opened, 19th line is marked.

In the scene I created one object, selected it, and tried to make parray.. as you did in the tutorial.
I’m running MAX 2010 x64 on Win7 (HP ProBook laptop).

Any suggestions? Thank you. Milan

Parametric Array then takes the uvw mapping information to analyze the surface which is a way slower than nurbs evaluation functions
In this case I recommend you to do not press apply button to perform your transformation
The preview button will be sufficient unless you want to make animation .
I’m working on this issue right now . Try to resolve it in upcoming version

thanks for your fast reply. i’m just trying out some tutorials – like “Introducing surface controller of parametric array” and “Controlling scalar properties in two dimensional array by a surface”. so i make a nurbs surface and use the displacement modifier to transform the nurbs surface in Z. next i make a cylinder, use the parametric array plug-in to ‘copy’ array it 8 x 8 (the maximum in demo version) and then i use the surface controller to determine the height and the radius of the cylinder. at first this works (the cylinders change in height and radius according to the Z-values of the nurbs surface), but after a short while my 3DS max crashes. it seems not to happen when i only use the surface controller to change the height of the cylinders. but as soon as i combine height and radius, it goes wrong…

Thanks for your comment. I don’t see any conflit with your system spec
Try to call para function by running the command from create panel in Max.
It’s under category of helper objects/ torabitools
If that cause same error check your dotnet version
Looking forward to your reply

Is that when you use apply button ? Try to use preview if you are not doing animation

I like the plugin a lot, but my 3DS max crashes all the time when i use it. I work in Windows XP, installed on a Mac, but not virtual – Windows is installed directly on a partition of the HD. I use 3DSmax 2011. Please help.

Its been a great pleasure that i found out you made such an amazing script as an Iranian.
I wanna tell you congratulations.
I red all the comments on this page but it didnt help.I got the same error (–type error:call function or class,got:undefined)
i run both scripts before starting anything in 3ds max 2011 64bit but after creating it by clicking right mouse menu still the same error.
I would appreciate your answer.

As we have mentioned in our license purchase page this script works on max 2009 and higher version. please upgrade the 3ds max. If you are not able to do upgrade then send me a refund request to info@torabiarchitect.com along with your so I can arrange for the paypal transfer.
sorry for that,

I purchased th FULL version of parametric array after testing the demo version worked. saved the dotNET file into the startup folder and releaunched max. If I have the object selected and right click to bring up PA then i get the “demo version installed” message. Despite verifying the license, by setting a keyboard entry in the UI panel or right clicking without selecting an object I just cannot launch PA (without having an object selected first) I have tried reinstalling script/dotnet file numerous times, It basically doesnt work at all in the full version. I run 3dsmax 10 on windows 764bit.

Please help
