Popcorn FX---some not working...i purchased the 40fx and Plugin, the Lighting Attack quit working, i tried the settings
nothing, re loaded the software ,still wont work....Also the Ant Guy wont work....everything else is fine...Help?

I´m having the same problem

@uncle chuckle

the Lighting Attacker stopped working, tried the settings,reloaded
the program ,wont work

That's not quite true.
The Ligth Attacker works - in the video I have put you a small test.
Here you can see how it works.
You just have to note that the flash must come from the sides - not from above.

However, if you mean the promotional video,
where the boxes fall over as if thrown by lightning,
that's a trick that works that way.
All boxes have physics and are set to "Dynamic".
The floor is the "Infinity Plane" or the floor has physics status "Static"
The skates automatically fall over due to the physics. That has nothing to do with the lightning, they would fall out of it.
The Ligthnig Attack Blitz is just the show effect

So far, I have not gotten the Ants to work this way.
I have to try that out first

Interestingly the only way I could get the Lightning Attack to work was to include a character in the scene and it didn't work with all characters, just some G6 and CC characters. Didn't work with Props for me. It does not start straightaway, there is a longish delay and the length of the delay seemed to vary with each character...weird!
I have not been able to get the Crawl on Mesh to work with a character. It did run when located at 0,0,0 but as soon as I increased the height or tried to attach it to a character it stopped working. In this weeks webinar even Kai could not get it to work, so sounds like it might be faulty.
I cannot get the Fur to work either, no matter where its placed or what its attached to it just stays static in the same location.
The only other thing that I cannot figure out is the Flow Move Dummy. Anyone know what its for and how you use it?
Everything else seems to be working fine and looks great...very excited by this plug-in!
Cheers,

@ TopOnTone

Fur works fine with me as you can see.
To Flow Move Dummy
For this to work through the FX must use Flowe move leafes
You also have to assign physics to the ground (or use the Infintiy Palen)
and put a path (you see everything in the clip)

PS:
To use "Ligthnig Atrtack" on avatars
must have these physical elements (just add a 3D block to G 2 - G5 avatars - adjust physics) G 6 and CC usually already have a physical garment or hair with physics setting.
