Hi Tao,
recently I had to migrate to max 2021.
I tried to install your latest build, but it failed, I wanted to install the files manually, but the exctracted files through 7zip can't be installed manually.
May you ad a link to a zipped plugin for manual installation? maybe it works on 2021

Bonjour.
Désolé, je n'ai pas encore téléchargé de nouvelle version pour 3dsmax 2019 et 2020, j'ai besoin d'au moins 2 jours pour tester avant de télécharger.
La version actuelle est pour 3dsmax 2018.
Donnez-moi juste deux jours et ce sera prêt.

I just finishing migration for 3dsmax 2019 and 2020 but I will work on 2021 version as soon as I can download 3dsmax 2021 and see what's change in SDK.
Please add your request in GitHub too, so I can track issues and features.
Thank you.

The problem is about SDK changes that should be address in new build.
I'm going to fix it soon.
Do not forget to submit your request and also feature on Guithub.

It's nice to see MaxToLux plugin getting shape, It will be great to upload new builds on GitHub too.
Thank you for your effort.

I have been trying to build a compatible version for 3dsmax 2021 and there is a conflict between different versions of openimageIO and tbb.dll that already exist in 3dsmax 2021 and the one Luxcorerender need.
Until 3dsmax 2020 I manage to solve compatibility between openimageIO.dll and tbb.dll that works out for the best but in 3dsmax 2021 Arnold renderer needs a different version and the Luxcore always try to use Dll in the 3dsmax root directory.
How can I solve this without modifying the Luxcorerender code, because I don't want to modify the Luxcore source code every time that I need to update and build the Luxcorerender code?
Any suggestions here?

Should I ask this in another thread?

Hi, maybe Dade can tell you something about, or you can try to ask on https://forums.cgsociety.org/, there are lots of coders out there which handle with 3ds max and they really try to help.

Edited:
Did you check, if your problem is caused just by a change of the folder structure in 3ds max 2021. I needed to install a plugin, which is not updated anymore and i had to recreate the structure folder of the plugin inside 3ds max 2021 roots, to make it work.
