Updated notes; Dec 17, 2015

To get 3dsmax working and running.

If running from 64bit do;

WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winecfg

Do not install any winetricks repos the first time around with a clean wine prefix as with some versions max will install first time.

Otherwise do;

32bit machine;

winetricks msxml3 msxml6 dotnet20 cc580 vcrun2003

64bit machine;

env WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 winetricks msxml3 msxml6 dotnet20 cc580 vcrun2003 

When running the 3dsmax.exe installer de-select metal-ray satellite and continue as normal with the install process.

This works for wine version 1.6.2 with Ubuntu 15.04 32/64bit

Use the license import utility to transfer your windows 3dsmax9 license.

If 3dsMax9 doesn't work try this.

Fix: Use OpenGL as graphics mode.

Howto:

1) Save a new .reg file with these informations:

REGEDIT

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\

first time running of max will show a tutorial window; make sure you check the box "Don't show this again".
