Initial Install
Before an end-user with restricted Windows® operating system privileges can use Autodesk 3ds Max 2015 / Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2015, an administrator, with full privileges, must install and start the software one time in order to generate the Windows operating system registry information needed to complete the installation.

3ds Max Beta Installs
If there are previously installed versions of any beta software (including Release Candidate (RC) versions) of Autodesk 3ds Max 2015 / Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2015, uninstall and delete all system folders pertaining to these beta versions before installing the commercial version. Instructions on how to uninstall the beta versions are posted on the beta portal in the Beta and RC Readme files.
Leaving Ports Open
Autodesk 3ds Max or Autodesk 3ds Max Design, Autodesk® Vault, Autodesk® Backburner™, and various other components of the install, require that certain ports be open in third-party firewalls. If you are having problems with your firewall, read the documentation included with your firewall.
Port Conflict with mental ray (When Installing Autodesk 3ds Max 2015)
During the Autodesk 3ds Max installation process (from the install wizard) the mental ray® port is assigned automatically and cannot be changed from the install wizard. In most cases this is fine. In a rare case a conflict arises if the port is already occupied. In such a case you will receive this error message: To fix this issue, perform the following steps:
1. Using a text editor, open the Setup.ini file (located at the root of your install media).
2. Search for the [MAX] section.
3. You need to reassign mental ray to a different port number by adding this line under EXE_PATH= EXE_PARAM= MR_TCP_PORT=[YOUR PORT NUMBER] Where [YOUR PORT NUMBER] is replaced by the port number you want to assign to mental ray.
4. Save the Setup.ini file and run installer again.
Installing the IPv4 or IPv6 Versions of Network License Manager
You can install the IPv4 version of the Network License Manager from the Tools and Utilities tab in the 3ds Max 2015 / 3ds Max Design 2015 installer. If you need to install the IPv6 version of the Network License Manager, you can do so from Autodesk.com at the following location: www.autodesk.com/nlm-ipv6-windows

We can improve the stability of Autodesk 3ds Max / Autodesk 3ds Max Design largely because of the Customer Error Reports (CERs) that end-users submit.
