Opening 3DSMax 2017 File in 2021 issue

Hoping someone on here can help me, as I am not sure what I am doing wrong 🙂

We have recently updated our software from 2020 to 2021. We previously were using 2017 (Mental Ray) and when we opened these files in 2020 (Arnold)we were prompted with a file conversion. Once we ran through this the file worked great with very little issues.

However, we have now updated to 2021 and when we open old scenes from 2017 the maps from all materials seem to 'unplug' themselves. This is obviously not ideal but not sure what has changed to make this happen. It's worth noting that his has happened before the file conversion has taken place.

I have attached an image to show the scene in it's current state when opened.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.3DSMax 2021 Error.PNG
