Love your updates, thank you for that. Concerning Max 2025 - I know some work needs to be done to the core to benefit future development and for all the pieces to fall into place like Tetris, but still - it feels like a very minor release, which is something Max can no longer afford. Competition is fierce and much more advanced on many levels. Animation is nowhere near Maya's level, without tyFlow, Max has no real VFX tools natively, let us not get started on things like Cloth, lack of Geometry Nodes equivalent which MCG could become if developed properly... It is very saddening, because with Max 2024 it looked like things were improving more rapidly.
It feels like the development teams gave up a long time ago and now they are doing just the bare minimum to keep their jobs. (I know this might not be their decision but maybe Autodesk is giving up on Max and is making the development budget lower and lower). I hate to say this but 3DS Max is the WORST 3D software on the market regarding development.
@@perprerphaha no. 3DS Max is only alive because of the 3rd party scripts/plugins. Actually that's the biggest advantage of 3DS Max... the ability to easily create custom scripts and plugins. But also this made the developers lazy because... WHY WOULD they burn they heads creating tools and Implementing things into the software, if the community will do it anyways? lol
It's been said a thousand times, and I'll say it again. Max is updated continuously multiple times per year (2023.1, 2023.2, 2023.3 etc.) - every update is just incremental - it's just that every year they add a new number. There is no "wait a year to launch updates" - they could hold back all the changes inside a year until the end of the year and give all them all at once to make an "epic" update, or, they could continue with updates throughout the year so you get them faster and can more quickly learn the new features on every update - are you saying you would prefer the former? Heck no ... the updates are just fine the way they are.
@perprerp just cut it, most of us here like and work with 3ds Max daily and the update is not great. And he literally answered your question on his comment: better VFX, better Animation (compare to Maya) and Geometry Nodes. Is 3ds Max complete to you? Seriously? You can't think of anything to add or improve on? Lol
There are so many things to improve on but here it is a non sense update from autodesk. Trying to kill 3ds max or what ? Its already far behind from maya and blender in almost every aspect. I really want 3ds max to do some good for their users I dont know what Autodesk is thinking for the future of this software, because sadly I dont see any
I use the highest price Renewed the latest 3DS MAX In fact, I am not buying it for its value (everyone knows that this update has no such value at all) I do it for my feelings and encouragement to the staff of 3DSMAX It's a collection I think when there are no more senior collectors like us 3DS MAX should be put away...
3D Max has lost to "Blender" for years and Autodesk knows this and does not want the same problem that happened to 3D Max to happen to Maya. So they are investing in Maya, but they don't know that he failed there too. In addition to the best programmers in the world, Blender has a lot of love from the users who support it, unlike Max or Maya, which are based on money and nothing.
I use Corona mostly, and Arnold seems excessively complex at times, but it is a solid renderer, with vast capabilities. And, if you know what you are doing, higher quality output than almost any other renderer.
I kind of love updates that are mostly housekeeping and performance stuff. I love new features and all, but there's nothing more important than having stable and performant software if you use this stuff professionally.
What about Bifrost for 3ds Max? If Bifrost does not integrate, then what is supposed to be done with MCG? It looks like Autodesk is not going to develop either.
Max has no longer a "main" release. A year change only means an sdk break. Lately bigger features has come on point releases, like boolean modifier, array or conform modifier, etc. But yes, this new update comes without much of a "strong" feature, its more of a general small improvements here and there.
I agree with what you're saying, but major number releases should come with big improvements. I know it's psychological, but I'd rather they called this one 2024.3 and released 2025 in 3 months with good stuff. Like it or not, traditional marketing works for a reason @@andvfx
Some time ago you compared the performance of 3ds Max in viewports and when modifying objects versus Houdini and Maya and, I think, Blender... Several years have passed and all these programs have been significantly improved. Can you make a similar comparison with current generation 3ds max 2025, Houdini 20, Maya 2025? :) 3ds max won a few years ago :) And its performance has been improved in recent years.

You are missing out really. Since then, there are some amazing features that would make your work so much faster and easy. I do not upgrade every year but every 2-3 years it is a must.

What mouse do you guys use and what mouse would you recommend given MAX navigation is centered around having that mouse wheel button pressed. I'm looking for smth under 50 €, not quite old models (no more than 5 years ago) and have that mouse wheel feels nice and not get broken easily with extensive use of pressing and clicking it.
I have two logitech. One is the MX Master 3, wireless, last for over 1 month, and I can cycle over my 2 computers. The one at work is a logictech not sure the model, is more simple, with a wire, its under 50$ and has been great so far, with a nice wheel feeling.
@@andvfx man pls find out if it's possible the name of the wired model and how long have you been using it and if the buttons including the wheel still feel intact after the years? Also how noisy the wheel is at scrolling and clicking compared to other mice you used?
@@Kranos_CG I think the model is MU0055. I used for over 4 years. Noise, similar to others. I like that has a good size and my hand is in a good position.
@@keelfly that's a long known reality. 3DS Max is dying because Autodesk does to les and nearly no young artist is learning this software. Blender, Houdini and Unreal are at the moment the tools who are getting the attention.
Thanks for your update reviews, its been a long time ago since I left my one and only 3D app 3dsmax, now Blender is more far ahead from 3dsmax, I feel like they are not caring much about this software, it takes long time to release few little updates and that's so pity and sad
The updates for Max are ridiculous when simple stuff isn't yet implemented. like why can't each camera have its own resolution?! I know there are workarounds or plugins but this should be easy to implement. the whole interface with tiny buttons and multiple clicks to input numbers is becoming a pain in the butt. and many more simple stuff that make every day work easier...
If you say that 3ds max is good, you guys have no idea what we're doing. Compare blender and 3ds max 2025 TH-cam views that came out in one day. If you want to make 3ds max better in the future, you have to fire the current 3ds max team and replace it with a team that can develop better.
umm que mal@@andvfx Luisito comunica ha implementado en sus ultimos videos, un traductor de idiomas por IA para voz, y no suena tan mal y se entiende. No se que tan complejo sea implementarlo, ojala lo puedas revisar, tendrías mas alcance, saludos.
Funny watching the updates. Used to use 3ds max 2009 - 2017. All the updates are nothing. People getting excited over features and fixes that should have been implemented 5-10-15 years ago. The slate editor still looks ancient. Still depends on 3rd party plugins to work correctly. 🤦♂️
Thanks again for the video! I do appreciate your great content. Sadly, this update feels too light. Imo it should have been 2024.3. If it was, I believe customers would not view as harshly. But I'm guessing AD cares not a bit how we feel about it. So I'll save my rant and simply move on to other tools and teams I feel are worth my money and time. 🙂 In any case, thanks for all your great coverage of Max tools.
They can't even get the basics right. Viewport display still appalling, qt implementation really poor, fixing bugs are not updates, no significant updates to UI, layers, modal items, the list is endless. The one thing they should is update every modifier, that would be a start.
@@hectorruiz5270 Hi, Well it depends in not as used as much maya is used in West but in Asia and japan people prefer using max, keep in mind its better tool for modeling and scene handling even for movies! and ofcourse you can make it as better and better with Plugins in Tyflow and phoenix FD !
Frustratingly, Autodesk seems to lag behind when you compare it to the updates from Unreal, Blender, and others. The updates feel more like minor patches than substantial improvements. It's becoming increasingly clear that 3Ds Max is nearing the end of its lifecycle, with what appears to be minimal innovation and possibly just a limited budget from Autodesk aimed at maintaining its existing subscriber base rather than truly advancing the software, and attracting new users.
3DsMax simply doesn't need them, since it's fully feature-packed software, unlike Blender. Everything minor is being pushed as feature updates, which I install once in a couple of years when I get bored.
Has it not been like this the last 10 years really? I don’t think it’s near the end of its life cycle. But it’s innovation and evolution as a software died long time ago. I am pretty sure it will still have customers around in ten years. Sure Blender is free but if you have a studio setup with max or if you are an indie that knows max and can afford it. Then still max is better than Blender in many ways. I think it comes down to when Blender (or maybe it will instead be Unreal) has same level of all the workflow to produce game or arc viz assets as Max. Then people might switch. But as said I will probably take another 10 years until we are there.
It’s just time for the old guys like 3dss max to leave and give way to new, more progressive ones, no matter how sad it may sound. More and more people move to Blender.
In comparison with UE5 and blender, 3ds Max is a complete dead END in development, and it cannot take advantage of professional coding teams since it is not OPEN SOURCE! Autodesk must hire professional development teams instead of 2010-era guys!🥶 And spend money, otherwise it will have to say goodbye to its top market competitors!
they don't listen to user... they listen to the managers who has no clue what the user's need/want. WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO FLUSH hair and fur and integrate Xgen in 3ds max ? the hair system is absolute garbage and we need to relay on plugins !! what a shame !! Even blender,a free app, has a good hair system ! really autodesk is...well you know what..
As you say it's nothing. You deserve to promote better software. This update is beyond a joke, we all know that. Why do we have to install a new version and associated plugins for this useless tweak.
blender geometry nodes some things like 3d max modifier bulding blocks but blender geometry nodes is more powerful and more customized then 3ds max modifier bulding blocks

@@bgtubber Bro its true but mcg procedural modeling method is far far away from geometry nodes i watched some videos of mcg. mcg is not compare to blender geometry nodes system, any way thanks again for new info
Not that this update is that great, but what kind of ai you want? Generating a buggy script where you need more time to fix than writing it from scratch? Saw a video where chat-gpt was generating a blender script to arrange cubes in a circle: didn't work at 1st try, and can be done faster "by hand" without a script. But the blender folks were switching to hallelujah-mode. Or messing up mesh/uvs or animation by AI ? easy to do without. AI's for 3d are crap atm., ever saw a generated 3d-model blob-thingy, modeling from scratch is faster than using such nonsense. Something like photoshop did? First 10 usages are free, then you have to pay. Easy money for them because you need 30 times hit the generate button to get something useful. Whatever is shown in advert videos is a week-long process with one more or less good result. Where is the avalanche of Sora-videos? Why every months only 2-3 doggy/kitty-videos ? Very useful stuff indeed. And don't forget, when nobody actually knows what the AI-code is doing, how to expect bugfixes in this area? Try a free AI thing to generate an image, and then the customer/artdirector wants a slight change. Good luck with that. Maybe in a few years/decades... or another blown up bubble to burst. The argument "it will only get better" is there a long time now, still waiting for something really useful. People were excited 30years ago when we got reversi and minesweeper on windows, where are we now ?

I think it comes down to when Blender (or maybe it will instead be Unreal) has same level of all the workflow to produce game or arc viz assets as Max. Then people might switch. But as said I will probably take another 10 years until we are there.
It’s just time for the old guys like 3dss max to leave and give way to new, more progressive ones, no matter how sad it may sound. More and more people move to Blender.
Holy crap you guys, just go start using Blender and save yourselves the complaining. If you don't like it, stop using it ... simple.
You mean YOU don;t need them.@@tommyholloway7634
In comparison with UE5 and blender, 3ds Max is a complete dead END in development, and it cannot take advantage of professional coding teams since it is not OPEN SOURCE!
Autodesk must hire professional development teams instead of 2010-era guys!🥶 And spend money, otherwise it will have to say goodbye to its top market competitors!
Se puede salir del 3DS MAX, Eloi. Con el apoyo de tus seres queridos y mucha fuerza de voluntad, se puede.
they don't listen to user... they listen to the managers who has no clue what the user's need/want. WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO FLUSH hair and fur and integrate Xgen in 3ds max ? the hair system is absolute garbage and we need to relay on plugins !! what a shame !! Even blender,a free app, has a good hair system ! really autodesk is...well you know what..
disappointing update
As you say it's nothing. You deserve to promote better software. This update is beyond a joke, we all know that. Why do we have to install a new version and associated plugins for this useless tweak.
blender geometry nodes some things like 3d max modifier bulding blocks but blender geometry nodes is more powerful and more customized then 3ds max modifier bulding blocks
3ds Max has had nodes for many years now. It's called MCG (Max Creation Graph).
@@bgtubber Thanks but i dont know about this modifier i will check it now Thanks again🙂
@@bgtubber it is but none uses it, actually it is stupid to argue whose dick is bigger, everyone chooses a more comfortable application for oneself to work with.
@@bgtubber Bro its true but mcg procedural modeling method is far far away from geometry nodes i watched some videos of mcg. mcg is not compare to blender geometry nodes system, any way thanks again for new info
@@bgtubber yeah but it basically does nothing
No AI, no nothing. These companies are worse than phone / processor companies. Just giving small small improvements so they can sell max.
Not that this update is that great, but what kind of ai you want?
Generating a buggy script where you need more time to fix than writing it from scratch?
Saw a video where chat-gpt was generating a blender script to arrange cubes in a circle: didn't work at 1st try, and can be done faster "by hand" without a script.
But the blender folks were switching to hallelujah-mode.
Or messing up mesh/uvs or animation by AI ? easy to do without.
AI's for 3d are crap atm., ever saw a generated 3d-model blob-thingy, modeling from scratch is faster than using such nonsense.
Something like photoshop did? First 10 usages are free, then you have to pay. Easy money for them because you need 30 times hit the generate button to get something useful.
Whatever is shown in advert videos is a week-long process with one more or less good result.
Where is the avalanche of Sora-videos? Why every months only 2-3 doggy/kitty-videos ? Very useful stuff indeed.
And don't forget, when nobody actually knows what the AI-code is doing, how to expect bugfixes in this area?
Try a free AI thing to generate an image, and then the customer/artdirector wants a slight change. Good luck with that.
Maybe in a few years/decades... or another blown up bubble to burst.
The argument "it will only get better" is there a long time now, still waiting for something really useful.
People were excited 30years ago when we got reversi and minesweeper on windows, where are we now ?
Beautiful software but I rather stick with Blender..
omg i am still using 2016😂
Also my favourite version
