WARNING!
If you are using Thinkbox Deadline, DO NOT INSTALL Product Update 6!
It contains a code change that breaks Deadline support for 3ds Max 2012 (the same way 3ds Max 2013 does not work with Deadline).
Autodesk is preparing a Product Update 7 to address this issue, as well as a similar Product Update for 3ds Max 2013.
Please pass this info to any Max+Deadline users you might know.
they have to force people with bad strategies to buy their software just like adobe…
