Saving Max 2024 as 2022 - "edit poly operation" warning

Hello,

when I save my Max 2024 as 2022 I get a warning, which maybe means, that the edit poly modifier has changed.

In order to use the file (which has a lot of objects) I would like to know WHICH objects have an invalid usage of that modifier. Or what else I can do.

 

Thanks

There's no way to know. What I do is just open the file in 2022 and look at objects to to see if anything is wrong. Then, fix it in 2022 if necessary.

 

One thing you can do if you know that you used 2024 to do a lot of specific edits using the new tools is finish that object and export it as an FBX or something. Then open the file and delete the object with the 2024 edit stack and import the FBX into your 2022 file.
