Hi everyone, I'm having issues with 3DS Max 2016. The splash screen will load up, it'll run through all the plugins and will say it's starting 3DS Max and then it crashes. At first it was giving me a dialog box that says the program has crashed but its not even doing that now. I'm not sure whats going on and I can't find…
hey guys i was hoping you could help me out. lately when i've been using max, my command panel ends up disappearing. i tried the show command panel thing in customization, but thats already turned on. it seems to come back after i restart max, but having to do that everytime is starting to be a pain. i'm thinking i'm…
Started up max today and I got some unusual blank menus in the upper left of the viewport. I searched for anything related to these menus. Viewport menu fixes, resetting viewport, even reinstalled 2018 max cleanly - including user files and restarted. So I'm not sure what else to do... Appreciate any input on this. It's…
Hi, I've been watching the video SHOWDX at Discreet : http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=5659513 ... to show a model 3D in REAL TIME - DIRECT X. I've opened the 3DS MAX 7 to find how I can do that , but I did not find the "DIRECTX MANAGER" in "MATERIAL EDITOR" ! I suppose that I have to change the…
Hey guys, I just did a fresh install of Windows and Max 2009 x64 and whenever I try to use isolate selection (CTRL + Q on default) I get a MAXscript error and the function doesnt work. Reinstalling Max has no effect, and its a full updated version. I'm wondering if any of you MAXScript guru's can diagnose the issue and…
I have noticed that material in Max is rendering still the same, no matter what shader I choose inside SP. I even checked export shader parameters upon exporting textures from SP, but it seems it has no effect on max vray. I got almost the same result using different shaders, so it seems there needs to be something checked…
Hey guys! I need to do a lot of UV mapping lately, with constant editing of UV islands, paired with heavy booleaning which sometimes breaks shells into pieces. So i was wondering is there any Paint Select tools that i can use while editing UV's? Something like Preview SubObject which works great in edit poly mode, but…
So i have this scene with a few hundred different meshes, all of them are unique in regards to UV layout, shape etc. How can i export every single mesh in the project to separate FBX-files? If i have a mesh called door1 i want to export that mesh as door1.fbx then door2 as door2.fbx and so on. Doing this manually is just…
Ah while it might be different in 8 to 9, in UV edit mode you'll see an actual selection in the Parameters section on the right side. Right below Edit and Channel you'll see Display where it shows Show No Seams, Thin Seam, and Thick Seams. It defaults on Thick so that should probably fix your issue. Edit: Just remembered I…
I downloaded max 10 and it seems to move important tools around like view image file so I can have a reference while modeling instead of having to put it on a plane. Oh and now I have one model that I built in max 10 and I wanted to zoom out way past the model but for some fecking reason it keeps me within a certain…
