My 3DS Max 2017 installer do not include the Mentalray plugins

[Anonymous]

Hi

I have this problem with my installer and seems to be it is serious, because Autodesk do not give you a link to download the mentalray and iray plugins.

My installer do not has these plugins and I can prove this with screenshots

As you can see it is impossible to install mentalray and iray.

The result is I get Max installed with the defaut render engines, and I cannot have the possibility to install mentalray.

Would it be possible to download in a website the mentalray plugins for 3DS Max 2017?

Cheers

Have you installed 3ds Max 2017 and found Mental Ray and Iray to be missing?  Or are you just concerned that you aren't seeing them as an option during installation?

I am unaware of a way to NOT install those two render engines.  They are part of the package, and should be listed in your available renderers when you go to generate an image from 3ds Max.  I can't think of any reason why they would not be installed at the same time as 3ds Max.
