[Max] I need help! / Chaos Cosmos slow to open

« on: 2025-04-10, 14:19:39 »

The last couple of days Cosmos has been really slow to open and also the downloads are slow. Is it just me or is this a wide spread issue?

Edit: the forum is also a bit sluggish.

Maybe you could give us some insight into what went wrong? This will help people understand these issues better.

I have the same problem and just wanted to post this. This is an urgent issue. Please Chaos fix this ASAP. Needless to say we can't do our job at this moment!

Than why doesn't it happen when i close Cosmos? Can you explain this?

Do you have Cosmos open on different monitor than 3ds Max? Do you have different scaling on both monitors?
If you take any 3ds Max dialog (for example "Render Setup") and move it to another monitor with different scaling, you will get the same issue.
I am guessing both 3ds Max and Cosmos use the same UI framework and it glitches in the same way.

I just tried it with the render setup on the second monitor and no lagging occurs. I do have different scaling (that is the issue we found before). I am talking about the lagging here, not the pulldown menu's having different scaling.

The issue still remains to some degree. I have a scene with a large multiscattered grass plane. When i start render the mousepointer gets very laggy, this is both with IR and production render. As soon as i close Cosmos the issue is gone.

Yeah, i figured the scaling was the culprit since the letter got so big. Are you also looking into Cosmos always being in the foreground when using max. It was better in a separate window.

I am using the version you linked me to in the previous post. This behavior started with the update which gave Cosmos it's own window instead of a separate browser window, also notice my reply on the 24th about this.
I also have my text set to a 150% scale on the secondary screen. The resolutions of my screens are 2560x1440@170hz for the primary screen and 1920x1080@60hz for the secondary screen, the secondary screen is below the primary.

See the first screenshot. The menu looks normal (Cosmos has not opened yet)
The other screenshots are with Cosmos opened. Closing Cosmos does not resolve the issue, i have to restart 3dsmax to get the menus back. The 3rd screenshot isn't showing anything when clicked on.
Strangely the tools menu acts normal.

I also just noticed that opening Cosmos messes with the pulldown menu when Cosmos is open on my secondary monitor. I use a small 10 inch screen for this and sometimes the pulldopwn menus seem to take on a different resolution or the flyouts in the pulldown menu don't work :(

Yes, the update fixed the problem. I do notice something else now though. I always open Cosmos on my second screen, but now Cosmos is on top as soon as i start working in 3dsmax. I often have a pdf or email open on my second screen but now i can't see it when Cosmos is open. I liked it better the way it was. A seperate window could be active whenever i needed it, now it is always active as soon as i start working in 3dsmax and i have to close or miminize the window.

Since the installation of Corona 12 update 1 i have very slow (unworkable) viewport performance when Cosmos is open. As soon as i close Cosmos the viewport acts normal again. I noticed Cosmos no longer opens in a seperate browser window too. It looks like it is related to this maybe?

Anyone else noticed this?

edit: i would like to add that it doesn't happen if the viewport is light (not many polygons).

Do you log on to your pc with different accounts? This is what happens to me a lot. I work from home and y daughter also uses my pc with her own account. Every time she uses my pc i have to reinstall the license server.

On our side the issue has been fixed. I am now able to use the dongle again.
