That is weird. Why wouldn't they say what is wrong with it?

Cause they don't really care what you think anyway

I am on 2013, so it doesn't apply to me. I just thought it might help you guys, who are on 2012.

They're waiting for max 2014 so they can reintroduce those bugs

But seriously, even with the odd problem or license issue, (which has always been the case since day1), I think I will be using Max still for a long time (or maybe Maya)

actually...i would say that PU11 fixes all the bugs max 2012 has....that would lead to end of all future max sells cos everybody woudl be too happy with 2012PU11 ))

Hmmm so shall we install this one or wait a few days if they will retract it?
Any who installed it and can confirm it works great?

[joconnell]

I'd say that's one of the big issues - max is used in so many different ways that it's very hard to go through all of the possibilities. It might work great for me as a vfx guy but all of the architecture and cad import stuff might be totally unusable!

That is so so true!!!

What was in this product update?

I ask because I was looking for the animation addon they released for 2012 that could do crowds of people very quickly and I cant find any mention of it existing anywhere on the internet. I know bobby started a thread about it too but I cant find that either. Any ideas what it was called?
