3ds Max 8 Service Pack 2

Por ahí anuncian el service pak 2 para el que le interese. http://usa.Autodesk.com/adsk/servlet...linkid=5573636. Un saludo.

Pero que es esto, empieza a oler a Microsoft, el otro día empecé a pensar en hacerme libre y pasarme a Linux, a Blender, y dejarme de todo está suciedad, entre el Windows Vista y los service pack packs me empieza a dar miedo. Quizás empiece a ser el decaimiento de Windows, por cierto habéis buscao Linux en Google, que teme Microsoft, a caso no decía que no tenían miedo, pues parece que la competencia esta dándole duro. Yo si algún linuxero se anima a hacer un tutorial de cvs me paso a Blender, Caronte animate y deja un poco las navecitas.

Edito: - Perdón, siempre asocio lo libre a Linux, también existen las cosas libres en Windows -.

Alberizo todos los programas hacen lo mismo cuando acumulan errores y da las gracias de que aquí Autodesk no te cobre.

Ni aun siendo pirata? Eso me gusta más que Microsoft, que yo los service pack de Windows solos he visto en imágenes y ni los quiero ver, que las veces que intente actualizar el framework al 1.1 me quede sin equipo, y me ha pasado 3 veces, así que, cuando veo las palabras service pack huyo prefiero malo conocido que bueno x conocer.

A mí me parece bien, el tema de los errores es algo asumido en el proceso del software, y mientras no cobren por los sp.

Esperemos que traiga mejoras. Voy a echarle un ojo al readme.

Pues yo acabo de instalar el service pack 2 del 3ds Max y ahora se me queda petado el 3ds Max al intentar arrancarlo, tsk, stk, toca volver a instalar.

Lo he instalado, y no problema. Birkov, algo mal tendrás en tu max o Windows.

Birkov. ¿no habrás instalado el service pack 2 directamente (sin instalar el service pack 1), y sin tener el service pack 2 de Windows XP? Es que para cualquiera de los service pack de 3ds Max hace falta tener el service pack 2 de XP.

Lo sé por experiencia propia, yo instalé el service pack 1 de 3ds Max 8 sin tener el service pack 2 de Windows XP y tampoco se me iniciaba el 3ds Max, instalé el service pack 2 de Windows XP y todo arreglado. Saludos.

Pues sí, instalé el service pack 2 del 3ds Max en un equipo con Windows XP con service pack 1, a ver si por la tarde puedo y pruebo a instalar el service pack 2 del 3ds Max en otro equipo que sí tiene instalado el service pack 2 de Windows, ya os contaré.

Bingo el problema es que no tenía instalado el service pack 2 de Windows, probé en otro ordenador y funciona perfectamente, por cierto, no hace falta instalar el service pack 1 del 3ds Max, no lo hice y funciona bien. Saludos.
