You can find the latest version on the Autodesk App Store:

https://apps.autodesk.com/3DSMAX/en/Detail/Index?id=3481100546473279788&os=Win64&appLang=en

 

Keep in mind this is version 2019, so nothing has been updated on it for several years.  It is not really being supported by Autodesk any longer, so if you need something reliable you may want to consider purchasing an alternative like Deadline or Pulze.

Deadline is now free (I think you just have to have an aws account to download). We've been using it for our farm(s) for years and works much better than Backburner.

@steve.johnson.WSP you are correct, Deadline can be used for free on up to 10 render machines.  If you need to run it on more than that, you have to pay for it.  But it's only $48/node per year, which is pretty reasonable.  Pulze is $69/node yearly, and very easy to setup and use.  We just ran through a trial of it, and it went very smoothly.

I know they had bumped up the free node limit from 3 machines to 10 a while back, but I think as of fall 2022 its fully free.
