[solved] No Corona 6 daily builds for 3ds max 2013

Corona Corona for 3ds Max Help Required
1

Hi,
I tried to install the recent daily build (corona-6-3dsmax-daily-2020-02-20) on… 3ds max 2013. Version 5 worked and even some daily builds of Corona 6 could be installed in 2013.

So during this last installation, there were no errors. But when I launched 3dsmax it said I have corona 5 installed. I guess the update did not work after all.

I reinstalled the daily build it using “Custom mode”. Then I noticed that there are only 2014 - 2020 versions available.

So, Is it already decided that 3ds max 2013 will not be supported?
If so, I will need to cancel my subscription ( I have a box license with a subscription for updates).

It would be nice to get some type of warning.
I still hope that is a temporary glitch and somehow 3ds max 2013 will still be supported.
I look forward to any news and answers about it. Cheers

Hi,
Indeed 3ds max 2013 isn’t supported anymore in Corona V6. This is from one of the daily build’s changelog:

Hi,

Romullus is indeed correct. 3ds Max 2013 is no longer supported from Corona v6 DB 2020-01-31 onwards.

Unfortunately we can’t maintain legacy versions of 3ds Max forever as it is too time consuming, this time can instead be spent on developing new features.

Thanks,

Rowan
