Animated texture with preview not working in 3dsmax 2015 using corona material

[dbeaudry]

Hi there!

Here is how to reproduce the problem:

Map 1 sequence file in the diffuse texture with a Corona material
Apply on object
Show shaded material in viewport
It is animated when we scrub the timeline
But when we create a viewport preview, the texture is not animated
With a standard max material, it works.

I have:

3dsmax 2015 sp4
quadro k5000
Corona version: 1.6 DailyBuild Apr  7 2017
Thanks!

This is still a problem in max 2018 and Corona materials. Seems to work fine if you use a standard material. Its annoying because its just one more step for no reason.

We've gathered enough information to understand the issue, and we will release a fix for this.
Thanks for reporting!
