.max (any version of 3dsmax) 3dsmax's thumbnails doesn't preview and doesn't show, since ~1.91 (if I remember correctly)
Can it be fixed?
p.s. Tnx for great viewer!

I reseted xnview.ini for sure, nothing happened. Instead of thumbnails form .max files I see white thumbnails.
I'm not sure that it can prevent to show thumbnail:
Code: Select all
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.max\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]
@="{9DBD2C50-62AD-11d0-B806-00C04FD706EC}"
This registry 3d-party modification allows Explorer to show properly .max thumbnail.
Crash !

Hello !
• I've nine
*.max samples here in a folder.
- Testing them with 1.93.4, I get some thumb nails (3…4), but waiting for a ten of seconds,
XnView crashes, and
Dear Bill comes to close…

Again…
• The
RGhost's files work fine here, I've the thumb nails and no crash…
• However, it's abnormal to get a crash with my own samples, do you wish to get them ?

Hm. I install older 1.91 full, it shows (rebuild) thumbnails .max. 1.93.4 not shows.
I don't remember for sure what kind of version xnview stoped to show .max thumbnails.
