When a 3ds Max scene is saved, the file’s creation and modification timestamps are recorded using the host operating system’s local time zone without conversion to UTC. This can lead to different displayed timestamps when the same .max file is opened on a workstation configured with a different time zone. The goal is to understand whether this behavior intro
Concurrent Certificate Fetching Latency In high-throughput environments using threedsmax , the CertificateManager performs synchronous HTTP GET requests to retrieve 3DS certificates. When multiple threads trigger this process simultaneously, the lack of synchronization in the certificate retrieval logic leads to significant latency spikes and duplicate cache
Determine whether to link against the static maxapi.lib import library or the DLL import library when configuring a repeatable development environment for Autodesk 3ds Max plug‑in projects that use the SDK. The SDK version must exactly match the target 3ds Max release, the platform toolset must be compatible with the Visual Studio version, and the build must
