+1 We still love Thinkbox plugins for 3dsMax and look forward to the 2024 versions, thanks!
Hello @MarcoA,
Thanks for reaching out, I am going to create an feature request to our Engineering Team to have Frost MX updated for 3dsMax 2024. I can’t share the details of ETA due to Amazon policy, but keep an eye for future Frost version releases that ships with added features and bug fixes!
Thanks.

For the Vray issue, it’s find ou that since Vray6 chaos remove the version number for the Vray dll, so it will no longer be Vray< maxversion >.dll, but Vray.dll …(and it’s stored now on the new appplugin folder in programdata)

I remember a Spacefrog, the Amiga game, and another @spacefrog user in Cgtalk forum 
whose name and avatar I recall seeing often. Hi! I am Nezih, AKA Byteman3d in that forum.
I find Frost the most reliable, efficient and versatile meshing solution. It is the single plugin that keeps me from upgrading to the new 3DS Max version.
I believe it is a plugin that must be implemented in 3DS Max as a native mesher. I don’t say “particle mesher” because it meshes and blends anything. Most people are probably not aware of the power of Frost. I am constantly checking for a Max 2025 version.

Nezih.
Still interested ?

Let me know if you are still interested

Still interested. Please!
I wonder if it requires a lot of different components to recompile Frost for upcoming Max versions.
You know AI is capable of writing code and I use it in MaxScript with great success. I sometimes think what components are necessary to recompile and if it would be possible to achieve this by the help of ChatGPT? I’m pretty sure it will help do the task but there may be prerequisites, what it is called in software industry? Environment?? What we need to instal in the first place?
