https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/max-202-to-max-2019/m-p/9024567#M30412 <P>I was just going to post. I tried 3 or 4 times and it eventually worked. When I opened the 2019 in 2020 I was missing some plugins. I installed them in 2020, saved as, and then they opened in 2019. I am not sure why that would matter and I am not 100 % sure if that was the solution.</P> Fri, 13 Sep 2019 19:40:46 GMT whitebirchstudios 2019-09-13T19:40:46Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/max-202-to-max-2019/m-p/9024012#M30410 <P>I have two MAX 2020 models that I am saving back to MAX 2019, but they can't be opened. When I try, MAX 2019 crashes.</P> Fri, 13 Sep 2019 15:13:59 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/max-202-to-max-2019/m-p/9024012#M30410 whitebirchstudios 2019-09-13T15:13:59Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/max-202-to-max-2019/m-p/9024561#M30411 <P>Hi,</P><P>You could try exporting them as FBX or OBJ - then import into 2019 and save.</P><P>If you want to attach here I'll see if it works for me.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Daf</P> Fri, 13 Sep 2019 19:38:04 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/max-202-to-max-2019/m-p/9024561#M30411 Daf 2019-09-13T19:38:04Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/3ds-max-forum/max-202-to-max-2019/m-p/9024567#M30412 <P>I was just going to post.
