No more ActiveShade Renderer !

V-Ray V-Ray for 3ds Max Issues
1

Hello,

I am facing a very annoying problem: usually, when I hold a mouse left click on the little pointing down arrow near the “Render” button on the bottom of the “Render Setup” Dialog box (F10), there comes a drop-down menu giving me the choice of the render I want to work with: Production renderer, draft renderer or ActiveShade renderer.
Since a couple of days, holding a left click on this arrow doesn’t show up any drop-down menu, so I can’t choose to work with VRay RT anymore !
I uninstalled 3ds max Design 2013 x64, I installed it again, I uninstalled VRay (2.30.01), I installed it again but … the problem remains.

Please help me: I just can’t live without VRay RT :cry:

Thank you,

Yea I noticed strange stuff happening in max 2013 too haha =D my net render was gone for a while… =D

Main toolbar solved it

Searching in the 3dsmax help, I found a workaround: I didn’t pay attention close enough to the main toolbar, there is a button (this one works, thank you Autodesk !) that lets you choose between “Production”, “Render Iterative” and “ActiveShade” … so it solved my problem, but, this bug remains in the Render panel and it’s quite strange … :roll:

Does anybody know how to make my ActiveShade button back please ? This is really too anoying …

Probably you need to delete some 3ds Max .ini file or UI file somewhere… unfortunately I don’t know which one.

Best regards,
