Not playing the animation

Recently (about a week or two) I haven't been able to get the animation button to function properly.

I can animate, I just can't hit the "/" hotkey or even press play. If I press the play button, the play ui design itself gets smaller but doesn't play any animation. If I turn off the "Real Time" option in "Time Configuration" It plays, but it's too slow compared to what I am actually accustomed to.

I have tried the usual (Restart etc etc.  I even deleted the ENU Folder. The problem still consists) On some max scenes, it works, some it doesn't.

Hi @indigenoustribe52

 

Not sure if it will help or not, but the ProSound "Specify Play Range" can override the Real Time Play Animation in your scenes, and can result in similar behavior as to what you are describing, if the play range don't overlap or match.

To verify, open the Dope Sheet, double click on Sound in the left list, verify that Specify Play Range is not check marked, then try Play Animation with Real Time check marked.

Thanks for reaching out, let us know if this fix or not the issue, if it does please accept as solution, if it doesn't sharing a problematic file would help us trying to reproduce the issue and look for what is wrong with it.

If anyone still got that problem try changing Flyout Time in preferences > general > UI Dusplay. I've accidently set it to 50 and forgot. After changing to default 300 problem is gone.
