Hello, I would like to brainstorm an issue that has not be solved for about a year. Why am I here. Well I have been asked by many others to try and get any version of 3DsMax working on wine, I have picked Max 9 32bit. However the current release version from Autodesk is 3DsMax 2012 I currently use Ubuntu 10.10 and Wine version 1.3.37 and will stick with this release as I dislike unity. I have also posted on the Wine Thread on ubuntu forums. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=11661461#post11661461 Moving on from what I said on that board, I get some wine bugs - for those interested in the console output look here - http://pastebin.com/qLmqcxbD Onwards and upwards - :) Other needed stuff like msxml3 and cc580 I already have dotnet20 installed with d3dx9_26, d3dx9_39, devenum, dinput, dinput8, dsound, dxdiag, msscript, riched20 I know some of this looks overkill but I also copied the Fonts from the Windows XP's folder into the wine's windows Fonts folder as I have noticed a lot of other apps depend on these being there. .... k at devbox12:~/.wine/drive_c/3dsmax9Trial$ winetricks msxml3 cc580 Code: Executing w_do_call msxml3 Executing load_msxml3 Using native override for following DLLs: msxml3 Executing winetricks_early_wine regedit C:\windows\Temp\_msxml3\override-dll.reg Executing wine msiexec /i msxml3.msi fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented. fixme:msvcr90:__clean_type_info_names_internal (0x60613064) stub err:richedit:ReadStyleSheet skipping optional destination fixme:msi:ControlEvent_SpawnWaitDialog Doing Nothing fixme:msvcr90:__clean_type_info_names_internal (0x60613064) stub fixme:msvcr90:__clean_type_info_names_internal (0xcad5c8) stub Executing w_do_call comctl32 comctl32 already installed, skipping You opted in, so reporting 'msxml3 ' to the winetricks maintainer so he knows which winetricks verbs get used and which don't.

I am wondering what next to try? and what I can do about some of the services not registering?

Yep true and I skipped that part of the install. The problem is with the main 3dsmax9 installer as it errors out almost towards the end. I can not paste the 3dsmaxerror.log as it is way to long nor can I seem to pastebin it. I uploaded it here; http://www.ukscifi.net/3dsmax/3dsmax9_win32_Install.log
I had decided to purge any install of wine as I was thinking there must have been traces of the old wine deb install from the repos. Old version thats is in the ubuntu repos is 1.3.37? Version I was prompted to try was Wine 1.4-rc2 that could only be installed manually. I do build the package myself with the needed dependences from the created install_wine_deps.sh from the http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages. Terminal Log. http://pastebin.com/KvGgaCjH 3dsMax logs http://www.ukscifi.net/3dsmax/

Delete the wineprefix you created as root and start over as a normal user.

I was researching what other files are called into action on win7. Show up as services in task manager like the Autodesk Licensing Utility. AdskScSrv.exe Checking the files on wine, I should have typed it other then just cutting and pasting the path, but when I noticed that myself way after I posted. There is no edit button?. "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Service\AdskScSrv.exe" this still stands. Now I am interested in trying this on my 64bit Ubuntu with the max version counter part but I do not think there is a wine process emulator in 64bit???.
> Anyone know where to get the trial of that version of 3dsmax?Autodesk offers trial of 2012 version only, unfortunately. So it is impossible to get trial of 2009 version from trustworthy official source.

I had been looking into other ways to get 3dsMax9 working, however unless someone like me has the files without a side of trojans, I will put closure on this. 3dsmax 2012 the way things are with wine incompatibility this seems very unlikely also as I get 3 times the bugs trying to get anywhere near the app installing never mind running. :)
