Hot on the heels of the somewhat underwhelming 2020 release, Autodesk have just released the newest update to the seminal 3D modeling application, 3DS MAX 2020.1. They have also updated their roadmap, showing future development priorities for the application. The biggest and possibly most game changing new feature of this release is the ability to detach and support up to 3 different viewports, making multiple monitor configurations so much more capable.
Primary features of the 2020.1 release:
- Detachable viewports
- New Hotkey editor tool
- Chamfer modifier improvements
- New Double-click selection
There are also several bug fixes and improvements fully detailed in the release notes. As mentioned earlier, Autodesk also updated their development roadmap, which is available here.
