   I downloaded that new service pack and unfortunately didn't change anything. I'm also getting this max script dialog to open by default every time I open Max. I'm just going to download 2014 and be done with it. 2012 has been frustrating.

   Topic by Chase · Apr 2014 · Home› Technical Talk

   I've received this message multiple times and the only way around it is to completely export everything into a new scene = pain in my ass. This error comes up when I go to the render to texture options and start picking the high poly elements to add to the projection. Once this message comes up I can't even select any…

   Have you installed the latest Service Pack? Max 2012 had a lot of script problems out of the box. You only need the newest one (Product Update #12) Here: http://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autodesk-3ds-max-2012-product-update-12.html

It's really strange. It might be a corrupt object because I selected one section of the mesh and did the same thing I always do to…

   Maybe an empty or otherwise corrupt object somewhere? Does this happen with a completely fresh scene and new test-objects, too, or can you link it to certain scenes? (I guess what I'm asking is: How unpredictable is this exactly? ) Try to deactivate the autowrap if you add the projection modifier manually. (First add…

   Yep I was doing that before and it worked. Only issue is when I need to get into the render options it wont open. That is, only if I get this error then trying to get into the options. The error is unpredictable so I might just have to change up my workflow of how I add the projection.

   I get the same thing if I use scenes I've saved with max 2014 in max 2012. Have you done something like that?
