[3DSMAX] 2024.2 Array modifier problems after scale / rotate and re-loading file.

darkmagick

The array modifier behaves strangely after I close and reopen the 3dsmax file. It seems like transformations are changed and the array modifier gets confused. Arrays are rotated etc. If I make an instance copy and realign that to the viewport and remove and re-add the array modifier it works again. But only until I reload the file. Is this a known problem?

Does anyone have problems with the array modifier when the objects are rotated afterwards?

Hope someone comes around until then i did some searching for the situation or any helpful tips that might help, i do not have this version of max so idk but otherwise i use follow path constraint and manually do things but usually do not need acurate "animations" per-say to do what i need for portfolio reasons.

Let us know if anything worked out here I'd like to hear about it, i just started to play with arrays after 20 years in max so yea i am no help but am interested to get ahead of any issues i might run into.  hope some1 who might know of anything comes around for you.

It seems that any rotation or scale transformation of the object after the array modifier has been added gives a wrong result once the files has been saved and re-loaded.

Is it the default for the array modifier give changed results after scaling or rotation of the object and re-loading the scene?
