• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

If you use Gmax i am sure you have seen this error and forced to restart Gmax.
MAXscript error: "Unknown system exception

I have searched online from time to time and found that people get this error for different reasons and there is no real solution.

I get this problem from "right clicking the viewport" window with a large project.
In the past i had to log off to fix this issue.
Today i found a quick simple solution that seems to be working every time.

SOLUTION:
When you first load Gmax right click on any viewport window then open your project and the error does not appear!

P.S. I never have this issue with 3DS MAX!
 
Sometimes I would get the error at a later time and found this is also prevented now. I am error free with my new discovery!:stirthepo:scratchch
 
Awesome, -in my side...and many sides as well LOL- from time to time Gmax gets freeze.

DG thanks for the head up.
Sergio.
 
DG, interesting discovery. I had the same issue; drove me crazy as I used to use right click menus all the time-no more. Glad I use the Autoback feature.

I tracked it down as I recall to a script and removed it. Sorry I cannot remember which one it was but it was not an original, but an add-on poly script I believe.

Happy that you have it sorted out.
 
Yes sometimes the file can get corrupted and you need to use the autoback or your own previous scene. But this error for me would not corrupt the file it would just force Gmax to close.
