Awesome man! I am speechless to see someone go to that length of actually debugging the 3ds Max SDK to fix my problem! I’ll digest that for a bit and will definitely get back to you. FWIW, I am on 3ds Max 2010 64bit.
Respect!

OK, Mike, you’re now the official hero of the day!!
After removing a stupid mistake in my script this works just beautifully. And it is a great showcase that demonstrates how priceless it is to have access to the source code of your software.
I’ll try to talk to Autodesk about officially fixing that. Maybe they can include this in a hotfix?
Mike, would you please PM me with your email address?
THANKS!

You are certainly welcome, but I will come clean and say that there was a wee bit of self-interest motivating me
I’ve been calling LAPACK/BLAST libraries from the SDK to solve minimization problems in an LOD modifier I’ve been working on. I really wanted to figure out how to leverage AlgLib from mxs as the .NET interface is cleaner. Fixing your problem and proving it would work (if mxs behaved better) has given me all sorts of ideas on how I can tidy up my stuff.
Please do submit that bug for me, I’d appreciate it.
