10.6 GB (3% Recovery)
Autodesk® 3ds Max® and Autodesk® 3ds Max® Design software provide powerful, integrated 3D modeling, animation, rendering, and compositing tools that enable artists and designers to more quickly ramp up for production. The two versions share core technology and features, but offer differentiated experiences and specialized toolsets for game developers, visual effects artists, and graphic designers on the one hand, and architects, designers, engineers, and visualization specialists on the other.
What's New in 3ds Max 2012
• Nitrous Accelerated Graphics Core: Enjoy dramatic improvements in performance and visual quality in the viewport.
• Substance Procedural Textures: Achieve a vast range of look variations with 80 new Substance procedural textures.
• mRigids Rigid-Body Dynamics: Leverage the NVIDIA® PhysX® engine to create dynamic rigid-body simulations directly in the viewport.
• iray Renderer: Get more predictable, photo-realistic results without worrying about rendering settings. Play a video showing this feature
• Single-Step Suites Interoperability: Take advantage of the focused toolsets in the Autodesk® 3ds Max® Entertainment Creation Suites 2012, with new single-step interoperability between the products found in the suites.
• Enhanced UVW Unwrapping: Create better UVW maps in less time, with a new mapping method. Play a video showing this feature
• Sculpting and Painting Enhancements: Enjoy greater control over brushstrokes and their effects, with new Conform, Transform, and Constrain-to-Spline brushes. Play a video showing this feature
• Vector Displacement Map Support: Use mental ray® or iray® to render complex high-resolution details created in Autodesk® Mudbox® software or certain other packages on low-resolution geometry.
• Enhanced, More Consistent F-Curve Editor: Enjoy some of the best features from the f-curve editors within each of the products in the Autodesk® 3ds Max® Entertainment Creation Suites 2012, combined into a toolset that offers more consistent functionality and terminology.
• Stylistic Rendering: Create a variety of non-photorealistic (NPR) effects that simulate artistic styles created by hand, with the new ability to render stylized images in the viewport and with the Quicksilver renderer.
• ProOptimizer Enhancements: You can now optimize models faster, more efficiently, and with better results.
• Improved Start-Up Time and Memory Footprint: Targeted performance improvements developed as part of the XBR initiative enable tools to be more intelligently loaded as required.
• UI Enhancements: An enhanced user interface (UI) adjusts to dark UI color schemes, performs faster, and offers a more consistent contextual UI location and access to help.
• Caddy Improvements: The Caddy in-canvas UI offers better usability, with a more predictable contextual UI location, quicker interaction, and default behavior which does not occlude the artist’s selection.

* Autodesk 3ds Max and 3ds Max Design 2012 have been optimized to take advantage of the SSE2 extended instruction sets supported on Intel® Pentium® 4 or higher, AMD Athlon™ 64, AMD Opteron™, and AMD Phenom™ processors. Autodesk 3ds Max 2012 will not operate on computers that do not support SSE2. Several utilities are available on the Internet that report CPUID, including supported instructions sets.
** Autodesk recommends settings that allow Microsoft Windows to manage virtual memory, as needed. There should always be at least twice as much free hard disk space as system memory (RAM).
Installation and Activation:
Very important, please read before asking questions (just to save you the trouble).
1. Mount or burn the DVD image (ISO).
To install from the virtual disk is highly recommended to use the program Alcohol 120% or Alcohol 52% at least version 2.0.1.2033
2. Copy "Pony-Patch" folder from the ISO to your desktop. This folder contains the activation patches (for both versions; x32 & x64).
IMPORTANT: Please don't try to be smart and run the patch directly from the ISO. It needs to write some data to the hard disc during the process of activation, that's why it won't work directly from the ISO.
3. Start Autodesk 3ds Max 2012 installation. When it asks you for serial, select I have my product information as shown in the following picture:
You will find the serial and product key in Autodesk 3ds Max (2012) Install.txt located in Pony-Patch folder
4. Install as usual
ACTIVATION:
1. Restart Autodesk Product
Before clicking on "Activate", Disconnect from the internet
2. Click Activate.
If you get the following window, click Back, then press Activate again.
3. Pick "I have an activation code from Autodesk"
This will give you a request code, copy (Ctrl+C) and paste to notepad. You will need this to get your activation code.
4. Open the Pony-Patch folder and start XFORCE Keygen 32bits version if you are installing a 32bits application and 64bits if you are installing a 64bits application.
Make sure you run the Keygen as administrator and with UAC off in Vista or Windows7
5. Click on Mem Patch (you should see successfully patched).
6. Copy the request code (which you previously copied to notepad) into the keygen and press generate
This will give you a group of numbers and digits, 56 in all
Now copy the activation code, all 56, into box #1. This will fill the boxes with the codes.
IMPORTANT: When you paste the activation code, it may not fill all the boxes. This is OK. Just press Next and you will see !!
Follow the same steps to install and activate 3ds Max Design 2012:
