Max 3d 2015 SP1 exe not msp

[Dazzman]

The latest service pack for 2015 3dsMaxDesign2015_SP1.exe doesn't extract to an .msp so how to I add it to my network deployment the 2014 sp's were .msp extensions by default any ideas?

Thanks.

The listed "3dsMaxDesign2015_SP1.exe" is nowhere to be found too. /facepalm

Fatal error from MsiInstaller during installation, see screengrab below.

From Windows Event Viewer: "Product: Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2015 - Update 'Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2015 SP1' could not be installed. Error code 1603. Windows Installer can create logs to help troubleshoot issues with installing software packages. Use the following link for instructions on turning on logging support: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=23127"

Of course, to add insult to injury, the http link stating how to 'turn on logging' does not even apply to Windows 7... the very OS EventViewer is being run on.

I have tried to right-click and install as Administrator. No luck. I have full privileges on my account. UAC is turned off.

I give up...

Just installed it (for Max, not Design - it IS a separate download) - no real issues. The installer needs some work as there are buttons you can't interact with until it's complete (and then only "Done").

same problem for service pack (??) Recap

when you try:

recapSP.exe /e recapSP.msp

it starts the service pack and does not convert it into a .msp

so how do we add it to a existing deployment?

what you can do, is edit the deployment, and include the service pack by downloading it there

(so it you have two or more deployments you have to download it more than once..)

You can use something like win RAR or whatever to extract a .msp out of it; problem is I still get the same error.

Max 2015 is uber cool, but extremely buggy, even the updates are buggy.

Hi Mr. Matthews,

I'm using 3ds max 2015. I' ve had also problems with installing the SP1.

I transform the exe file to msp file. Although I've got this strange error message ".... Could not write value CoreFiles to key \Products\7CE73B25638D01403046C342CBDE0201\Features. System error . Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel.", it seems it worked.

My screenshot shows my product status  I obviously have Product Version: 17.0 SP1 commercial

Am I right?

Used open source/free utility to extract MSP from update/service pack executables. Works a treat.
