3ds Max 2012 - UV scale tool is broken

barnesy

Hey Polycount,

My 3ds max has ben working perfectly and for some reason now the scale tool in the UWV unwrap doesnt constrain the proportions anymore which is a pain in the ass. You have to have ninja like accuracy to drag it in a perfect diagonal line which sucks haha. I have tried looking for some tick boxes regarding the uniform scale but I have not had any luck.

If anyone can think of any solutions that would make it behave again I would be grateful.

Thanks in advance!

That was a bug that they patched early on in 3dsmax2012, so make sure you're running the latest service pack.

I think, if you held down shift or alt or some combination it would revert back to the standard way of scaling uniformly, but you should still get the latest service pack.

Ctrl+Alt should lock it to uniform.

Good to know there's a real fix, though... gonna have to install that later

Thanks guys

I will have to check out that patch, Ctrl and Alt is working perfectly as a temp fix.
