Scripted materials in Max 9 ?

Eric Chadwick

Anyone using custom material scripts in Max 9? We're getting bizarre "bad allocation" errors with param blocks, and it seems to be coming from deep inside Max's code.

Sparks (the Max SDK forum) is as slow and silent as usual, SDK docs show nothing new, extensive Googling turns up nothing. Hitting up our contact in Autodesk hasn't turned over anything (yet).

Anyone been able to migrate scripted materials from 8 to 9? Frustrating having to stay in Max 8...

Stability. 9 hasn't crashed on me yet, in two days of work. Others say it's pretty solid, I've only heard one person say 9 crashes on them. 8 crashes on me 3 or 4 times a week. Autobak every five minutes only helps somewhat.

Per, man, you're creeping me out.

I guess you don't like me being a nice guy to noobs.
