What!? 3DS Max 9 doesn’t work on Vista!

Posted on March 9, 2007 by gettothechoppa

3D Studio Max does not run on Windows Vista. That’s what it says on the Autodesk site, that’s what it says on Maxforums, and that’s what I’m seeing in real life. How is it that the new WunderOS with all its 3D ’support’ doesn’t support the top 3D app on the planet?

    microsoft is taking nonesense risks with people’s money. and the software is good for nothing just some crazy animation but no real program works with it.
    solution : ban windows vista
    effect: if enough people do the same thing then microsoft won’t take these chances

    what to do: back to xp or mac
    i wish you guys luck
    your friend david(all of a sudden)

    Just to be clear, vista works amazing compared to xp, and the majority of incompatibilities are ignorant users not knowing how to use the new system (aka, people don’t understand compatibility mode, turning off UAC, run in admin mode, ect.).
    Fact: 3d Max 9 x64 and x32 work on vista with the new extension just released.

    Furthermore, your solutions is crap., I wonder why no one is doing it….o ya because xp is horrible and macs have the least compatible OS in the major market.

    solution: format David’s hard drive
    effect: he won’t be able to make ridiculous accusations and comments, and the internet will be a better more accurate place.

    O and by the way, its auto desks fault for failing to come out with a patch until recently. vista was in beta for over a year to prevent incompatibilities. almost all other programs i use,(i’ m and engineer and a programmer, and i use a lot of software application that are platform intensive)have been working since the day vista was released.

    What I can’t believe is that after 7 months (when I first posted the article on http://jetteroheller.wordpress.com/, the issue is still not resolved, and people are still posting every single day about the terrible issues they’re having with this.

    It’s unbelieveable that such a mainstream OS could be so problematic with such a high-class app!

    Thank god I’m not a Microsoft person, actually, or else your statement would be true! Running SuSE 10.3 x64 on a AMD Phenom 9500 right now.
