Yes, spacefrog is right, you need to edit your 3dsmax.ini file to fix this, or rather revert back to the old navigation system. I think the Adaptive Navigation system is autodesk's new way of handling things so this option to revert back might stop working in newer versions when they fully switch over. Then they MIGHT get…
Humm you might be onto something. I have Win7, Geforce 760GTX and run nitrous (3dsmax2014) and I get the selection problem occasionally but I don't notice as often because the controls I use are easy to select and everything else is either frozen or hidden.

Hi Nukakola7, I'm assuming your highpoly is high enough, so that the problem doesn't come from there.

Yeah it's weird, at home Nitrous is an un-useable lagfest, at work it works well. It really does look nice with the adaptive AA and so, but for it to be of any use to game artists they should allow custom shaders. So go vote:…
perhaps any max related issues that are fairly simple you should just read up in the max help file, people will probably be more interested in helping you with specific 3d issues. But TBH the view cube is shit and not many folks use it The triangle thingy is just a gizmo so you can move stuff in x,y,z, where is the…
