Corona Bitmap file open dialog not opening

[aaouviz]

Just updated to 2025.1 - I vaguely remember reading somewhere something about coronabitmap not working with this version? Am I correct?

I can't open the file load dialogue from corona bitmap node settings in SME.

I guess this is a known bug?

Can you please share some more info about this problem? Which exact version of 3ds Max and Corona are you using?
I am on the public 30.07 V13 daily and 3ds Max 2025.2 and this is working fine:
open SME > Create a Corona Bitmap node > (file open dialog pops up automatically, close it) > click "Load map" in the Corona Bitmap settings > the file open dialog opens, I can select a bitmap

This happens when quiet mode is active.

Good Luck

@aaouviz - do you have the quiet mode / popup suppression enabled? If so, that wouldn't be a Corona daily build problem.

Ah! My bad. Yep, I did, temporarily until I was advised to not use this. I didn't connect the dots and understand this was the cause.

Apologies.
