I am also getting very impatient for a release that is fully compatable with the now old MAX6. 5 months and counting!!!!. I personally don't care if it's called 1.1 or not.

Max6 compatibility turned out to be somewhat more complicated than we initially thought; there are some new extensions to be taken care of and a lot of testing to be done...

Best regards,
Vlado

Thanks for your reply Vlado. I'm sure all of us dedicated VRay enthousiasts will be very glad to help you thoroughly test the Max 6 version of VRay 1.1 as soon as possible.

Good luck with the last adjustments.

Cheers,

Hi all !

Thank you for the reply !!
As I already read it, if it was just possible to get the current version for
max 6 with the distributed rendering, it would be a good start.
But if there isn't here yet, this may be because, there is a big problem
with.
We will be patient, so...

Anyway, you will achieve it.

Good luck !

thank you discreet, for annoying your customers once again.
a program that relies on plugins, that have to be rewritten every time a new version comes out. after each update (except from 4 to 5) it takes 4-8 months to have the same functionality again.
i´m really fed up with this.

interesting quote from the finalrender forum, edwin braun (cebas guy):

It is not only that 3ds max 6 has a lot of changes internally affecting a renderer plug-in, it also became dramatically more complex and expensive to develop under 3ds max 6.
I'm confident that you will soon see other developers who will adjust to the new development situation with Discreet.

[cocolas]

I wonder what he really means by "the new development situation with Discreet" ??

The way Edwin puts it makes it sound like Discreet is the mob or something. I hope this whole Discreet Certified Plug-in deal doesn’t ruin other developers dreams

yeah...that was my impression as well......that could be bad news for certified developers.......I wonder what's even the advantage of being certified??.....besides being taken under the "protective" wing of Discreet...

With the way discreet has been going I wont be surprised if there is no max7

I have heard a rumor that Discreet will dump Max and release a new 3d package in 2 years.

Yup and that's probably when everyone will switch to Maya :P
