strip max to essentials

anyone know the bare minimum plug-ins i need to run max? ...i want to unload everything, and just load what i need as i need them. actually i can't even figure out how to UN-load a plug-in.

 

i am hoping to make max run faster by ditching anything i do not need.

 

this includes plugins, scripts, and anything else.

I think that is a nice touch to make max faster.

 

Have you tried plug in manager under customize to see the description of each plug in.

 

After you mentioned it, I opened the plug in manager, looked the plug in that i can remove for test asset browser...I just removed the file from plug in directory, max didn't give me an error on opening.. looks like works but not sure about main plugins loaded on start up..

Since Max 5 (I think it was 5) Max can dynamically load plugins... that is, plugins won't actually load into memory until you activate them in the unterface somehow. (Unless you load a file that already uses them in the scene.

 

Under preferences, section:pligIn Loading, check the button "Load Plugins when used".
