Max 2023 and Corona 8

[Philip kelly]

Good morning.
Can I ask is Max 2023 and Corona 8 compatible?
I have heard there may be issues , and the max is not allowing Corona v8 in when opened.
A college had this issue.
Is this true.
Any reason for this to be happening?
Before I go ahead and upgrade max

Thank you
Philip

Corona 8 officially supports 3ds Max 2023, yes.
Corona 7 does not - it won't work.

It's an odd one Vray 5,3 loads fine but Corona 8 won't.

Hi Philip, I am sorry that it is taking so long. I will now reply in your ticket.

Seems fixed after installing Corona in "custom" mode with all checkboxes enabled. Not sure what was the culprit here. Hopefully this thread can help others with similar issues in the future.
