I don't think the previous versions of GMAX are still available.  As far as I know 1.2 is the only one you can get now.

Rendering my ATR-42s the other day, it seems that one of the angles (I think it was east?) on some of the models rendered with no textures. The other three angles appeared fine. I can't be sure if this was related to batch export, but I thought perhaps it could be. Other than that I would like to say that since it has been fixed, it is the most useful tool ever conceived for the BATting process. Especially for me as a part of the SCAG for making bulk quantities of props.

When I save, GMax remembers the active viewport, as well as the mode (Smooth). I tried saving them all in smooth, I tried having one viewport in smooth, Everything I can think of, and still it does not have textures from time to time.

I even tried commenting out the lines in the script that check for facet, to no avail. Though I am not 100% sure I did that right. The do-while loop does not seem to have an end line, but I am guessing that is the way the scripting works.

One thing I did not try is to set the configuration to one viewport, I'll give that a shot now, and see what happens.

OK, got it to work.

Set viewport configuration to one pane, and make sure to save it in Smooth. Works fine then.

MaxScript doesn't use end statements like some other programing languages, once you open loop or if statements, etc., the code block for it is just bounded by parenthesis.

Cool

Thank you, it is very handy to be able to render everything while I am sleeping :)
