Just curious, I assume to install v3 we will have to un-install v2.7 and all its plugins? We can't just run v3 and have it automatically update v2.7, right?

For the documentation please, please provide a very detailed explanation of how to move to v3 for those who already have v2.7, because I have 4 apps all with Maxwell plugins...I hope there wont be hiccups.

Thanks

Having Maxwell itself in several versions is no problem. You will have a Maxwell 2 and a Maxwell 3 folder in Program Files/Next Limit. Then you can run each one as you want, starting 2.7 Studio or Maxwell or the 3.0 versions.

It's not the same for plugins though and I guess many/most of the host apps will present problems if you have both 2.7 and 3.0 versions of a plugin installed. So in those cases it's better to uninstall the 2.7 plugin and install the 3.0 ones, and ONLY the 3.0 ones. Unless of course, you enjoy reading exotic error messages

Good to know. I assume I can just run the un-installers for the plugins (I run Windows 7 64bit), I just hope we wont need to fish out left over files and bits...stuff the un-installer missed. I try avoiding exotic errors....heh.

Yes, really starting to resent that JDHill announcement from Aug 5th!

I purchased v2 few weeks ago, so I should qualify for free v3 upgrade. I really hope v3 finally supports Modo hair.

is this true?

Next Limit Maxwell Render Suite V3 Upgrade 330,00 € (netto)
Next Limit Maxwell V3 Update 5 RenderNodes 280,00 €

http://www.picturetools.de/ws/hprodukt.asp?ID=682

so an update for 1 full license and 8 nodes would be 890€?!?

really?!?


and i thought the 700€ for vray v3 + 10 nodes would be expensive...

earlier this year I was trying really hard to get multiple displacement maps per material added. Is there any chance this will be coming in V3? Even if it has not been added, was it at least looked into but decided against?
