For me as a solo indie game dev 3ds Max is unmatched when it comes to modeling/asset creation but yeah this update didnt feel good (enough). Some of us think this might be a minor update that was supposed to be a 2024.3 but never came. In that case a 2025.1 should be the major update which i hope is the case. Otherwise its not a good message that Autodesk is sending to us customers and also potential customers.
Thanks for the video. Such a shame that profit is more important than the root and branch work that's needed here. You look at this major release and wonder an update such as the search function being updated is derisory.
3DS Max already has many features in comparison in Blender such as retopology. FFD much better in 3ds Max. And many features much better in 3ds max. Only one feature needs for 3ds Max is a Transfer normal data between objects.
Sure, Blender’s got its perks. If you’re into watching your PC turn into a statue with a heavy mesh, it’s the perfect choice! meanwhile, 3ds Max just breezes through complex models and meshes like it’s nothing, acting like a reliable friend to artists. it offers a proper and solid modeling tools and a industgry standard animation and rigging capabilities, Max is practically in a league of its own for serious 3D work. Maybe we should start comparing Blender to Midjourney rather than focusing on a major facelift, which might just confuse Autodesk users. We should respect the standards and community that 3ds Max upholds. After all, it’s about the artist, not just the tool. while it’s understandable that you’re making your video for views and fame, maybe take a moment to look deeper into the topic before spreading some misconceptions about a solid and reliable software
Thank you for your complete explanation. In addition to providing new features, the purpose of this video is to suggest Autodesk to provide complete updates with more attractive features. And by no means, our intention was not to compare with blender, and it is only an example for people, how much a software can find. Thank you again for your comment❤️🙏🏻
a couple years ago I went to blender and Im never coming back, global search and menu editor are good features, but it would take a complete user interface redesign for me to even think of going back, which I know they are not going to do. im not blaming the developers in Autodesk but the execs, the majority of Autodesks profits come from Autocad, 3dsmax is just a smaller drop in the bucket, the management doesn't have the love for their product and it shows.
What a shame and disgrace. If I were still an Autodesk customer I would be furious. I'm more and more confident that stopping the renewal of my perpetual 3ds Max licenses 2 years ago was the right decision. No notable game-changing features have been added since then. Looks like Autodesk don't want my money. I've already saved thousands of dollars on pointless "upgrades" that I can spend on things that actually matter instead of Autodesk's board of directors' new yachts, because this is where it feels like their customers' money go and not in the proper development of this software. At that pace, it will be another 5 years before I miss some cool functionality/feature that's not available through a plug-in or a script.
well, as a +25 years max user, It is possible, I really like it, but there are things that still need lots of work and seem to be abandoned since ver 1

Thank you for sharing your expert opinion with us.
once there was softimage, killed...and now 3ds max is on the way to the same destination
Thanks for your comment
The 2025 UV editor is broken, have you noticed the UV edges are thicker and have more aliasing? Is there a solution?
Yes, it is true. We will check and share with you if we find a solution

I completely agree with you. We hope that the change of the user interface will be done soon so that it does not lose more customers.

It is true. We hope that this company will undergo a transformation that will provide many useful and attractive features.
Everything was going so well in the video until he said Blender is going to replace 3ds Max I literally spit my tea lmao.

thanks for your comment
exactly👌
blender replacing 3dsmax ? nahhh
thanks for your comment
Err... You know it's not "3dees Max" right? :)
Thanks for your comment 🙏🏻
What are you expecting? A button that will do the work for you??
Providing changes that make the work routine faster for each person
Just abandon Autodesk tools
Thanks for your comment 🌱🙏🏻
Blind bet that it's regression.
Exactly 🙏🏻
