Why is new Light Rig creation in 3ds max 3-7 so much slower than shown in the Demo Video?
In 3ds max 3-7, the creation of a new Light Rig can take longer to finish due to the inefficient way that Maxscript 3-7 handles controller assignments. This momentary delay increases with the number of lights in a Light Rig (i.e. 320 vs. 80) and the number of Rigs linked to the selected Ambient Track. This same delay is evident in several of LightRigger’s other functions, such as some of the Rig Mode conversions. Maxscript 8 and above handles controller assignments much more efficiently, so these delays do not affect LightRigger in 3ds max 8 and above.
