Reset MAX

[glorybound]

A strange thing happened to me, by chance, and I thought I would share. I was fixing an error I was having in MAX, so I renamed MAX's ENU folder (:\Users\YOUR_USER_NAME\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3ds maxdesign\2014 - 64bit\ENU), which solved my issue, but it also must have done something else. I stopped a render that had an estimated 8hrs to render. I was going to run it over night, so the render time was no big deal, but..! I am rendering it again, after letting MAX re-create the ENU folder, and it now is rendering in 2 1/2 hrs. So. it might be a fluke, but it might be something to look into.

in the new ENU, are u using Solidrocks?

you have to also bear in mind that reseting ENU also resets all the paths and such.
may be it might be the paths too??

BTW:
i reset ENU almost 2 times a day
for that reason i have created different MAX ENU setups and everytime max craps out, i just simply rewrite the ENU with a saved one

I don't have anything in my ENU now, except the default. I did back up my scripts menu, so I'll copy that back over.
