Who is 3ds Max Interactive designed for?

3ds Max Interactive is a real-time engine based on Autodesk Stingray. It can be used in a number of different contexts but its focus is on helping to simplify the process of turning animations, such as architectural visualizations, into stunning virtual reality experiences.

 

Changes made in 3ds Max can be deployed to VR
platforms without recompiling, so designers and
visualization artists can quickly test and make
changes.

How much does 3ds Max Interactive cost?

3ds Max Interactive is available to all current 3ds Max subscribers – either as a standalone product, or as part of an Autodesk industry collection – at no additional cost. It cannot be purchased separately. 

Iterating is easier than ever: update 3D content in
3ds Max and send it to the VR engine in just one
click.

In what languages are 3ds Max and 3ds Max Interactive available?

3ds Max software is available in seven languages: English, French, German, Korean, Japanese, Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese. 3ds Max Interactive is currently available in English only.
