3DSMAX DISABLE "MISSING EXTERNAL FILES" ON LOAD
dzintas:
Tried it, it's really bad. Stuff starts breaking and you have no idea why. Mainly just because it stops all popups not just missing bitmaps. And it suppresses them not only at startup, but indefinitely. So in my case scale got borked, cause it defaulted to rescaling objects instead of adopting system units.

System units mismatch? I certainly wouldn't want to miss that warning, among many others.
aaouviz:
Ok fair call. I will stop using this then.
Anyone know if I can edit this script so it disables only the warning I want to suppress?
So Frood, your script only works when I manually choose to open in that quiet mode, right? (And must have max already open?)
That kinda defeats the purpose for me, unfortunately.

Yes, by purpose for the mentioned reasons. Btw, this one:

is a side effect of having quiet mode active and is the exact issue of the topic I already mentioned to you in reply #2.

That's just not possible by (Max) design unfortunately.
Edit: If you want to load scenes generally in silent mode but automatically turn it off after loading (so you do not suffer from the mentioned CoronaBitmap issue), then use this instead:

Good Luck
aaouviz:
So, turns out the answer to my original query was known already.
Thanks to RenderRam for pointing it out in a recent video.
