So if you are used to the fast blazing UI speeds of old 3dsmax 2009, then you’re like me, annoyed when 2016+ MAX versions became extremely laggy. So I’ve found a solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set a Qt Environment variable in Windows<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In some instances, 3ds Max UI improvements may occur by setting a Qt (UI) environment variable in Windows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. In Windows (8 or 10), go to the Windows Search bar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Type: System. (It should bring up the choice of “System (Control Panel).”<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Press Enter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. In the System menu, in the bottom-left of the menu, click the Advanced Systems Settings item. A System Properties menu will appear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Click Environment Variables. The Environment Variables menu will appear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Under System variables, click New to bring up the New System Variable menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Under Variable name, enter: QT_OPENGL<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Under Variable value, enter: Angle<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. Click OK in to save the changes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. Under System variables, click New to bring up the New System Variable menu.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  11. Under Variable name, enter: QT_ANGLE_PLATFORM<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  12. Under Variable value, enter any one of these variables: warp, d3d9 or d3d11. (Note: Save only one of these at a time. If you see no improvement, reboot the PC and repeat the process but enter the next variable in this list.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  13. Click OK in each menu to save the changes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  14. Reboot the PC and test the performance in 3ds Max.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    For more information on the Qt variables, see: Qt 5 on Windows ANGLE and OpenGL<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
