3ds max freezes at the slightest action,not using big sized content
polycounter lvl 8
dont know if this question is apropiate here but is something that has been annoying me too much
so as title say 3ds max sometimes go too slow,like for example I enable a map like a specular map and them my pc go processing and even the pc freezes for some time and goes back to normal
but I am not exactly making some kind of uber model or something like,infact just a plain model less than 4000 polys and textures and normal maps a 1024 so that cant be
I remenber in softimage xsi there is a buttom that says "freeze" or something like it
that I have been told that is good to use cuz it erase some kind of unncesary data on the selected object and the programs runs more fluid,but I dont know if the "freeze" option that appears when right cliking in 3ds max is the same cuz it seems to literally freeze my objects and acquire some white color
I know in xsi the erased data is like the "history" of the object or something like that,so do there is a equivalent of that in 3ds max?
or maybe is just something else in my pc since is not unusual for it to have this "attacks" but lately its been exceeding and I was just aplying simple maps
or maybe I have to restart 3ds max?
well anyway any help is usefull

I know is not powerfull but considering that sometimes some graphics heavy games like masseffect runs smooter I dont think the specs are a problem when making a 4000 poly model
