Hi.. I am not able to use your UI files because of 2019 version. Do you have for 2019?
I don't currently, but I can work on getting it up and running. UI files typically work from one version to another, though. Did you try loading the 2018 files. If so, what happened. Occasionally, Autodesk will mix things up so they won't work on newer versions, but typically they will.
All that being said, I will work on getting 2019 files up and running.
Even i have the same problem. And one more thing can one UI file will be able to overwrite by other??
@Gnana Sekar You can export and import UI files as you please, so if you are worried about overwriting something, make sure to save it out first.
I just tried loading the 2018 custom UI into 3dsmax 2019, and it seemed to work fine. just FYI. thanks!
Good to know. I have had people wondering about that. Usually, it will work with newer versions. Every once in a while, maybe every 5 years, they change the format of the files altogether.
Hello! On my side, after installing custom UI into 3dsmax 2019, a lot of the program turned black (all buttons for loading something, all objects, all the parameters etc. I can only guess where to click - and it is not convenient...) I am not sure how is best to proceed. I closed and reopened 3dsmax but it still stays the same. How can I uninstall the custom UI to see how I can work with the standard version? I can't find videos for going back to default version. Thanks in advance for helping with this!
I managed to find a way to get the default setting :) Hope will get to adjust the custom settings later on
Hey Adam,
I too have 2019 but I'm guessing it should be fine based on the above posts. I currently run two monitors but usually have Max in only the main one. The only reason I ask is that I noticed the UI file names were "...singleMonitor" Does that matter?
It shouldn't matter much. The single monitor is for people that only have one monitor, because if they load a UI that has things off the screen, they wouldn't be able to see it. If you have two monitors, either one will work because they can be adjusted and placed as necessary.
@Adam Z Great! thanks, Adam.

Hi..
When can students expect UI files for 2020 version? My trail runs out in 30 days :) By the way thanks for sharing your great knowledge.
Have you tried the 2018 files? They should work.
Yes. But some of your tools seems to be missing.
@Christian Nielsen Okay, the stuff you outlined in the command panel are not showing up because you have a rectangle, not a editable spline. Once you convert to edit spline those will show up for you.
The toolbar is not showing up, though, you are right. Try loading the toolbar all by itself. Right click on any toolbar > customize > load > navigate to my toolbar file
@Adam Z thanks. I found that some of the icons in 2020 have changed and cant be docked at the same locations as yours. When i load the ui they appear in yhe right side :)
Hey Adam,
So for version 2018 i should download the 2017 UI?
hey, i downloaded ui 2018, and it changed to black rectangle,like what you are showing in the video that could happened. i dont have any 2017 version and i didnt really understand how to change it?
hi adam bro i am having 2013 version 3ds max do you have ui files for that? if you have just send me it will be very helpful for me
Hi,
I am using 3DsMax 2020 version. Do you have for 2020? or can I use 2018 also for 2020? Thanks
Can you make it for 2020??
Hi. I am using 3DsMax 2020 and would like to ask if you have this file for that version? Thanks
Hello, i se that a few other have comment that they are using 2020 version of 3ds max. i am using that version as well.. and I also see that you havent reaplied any of them back,.. in fact i see that you havent responded since may 2019. IT would be great if you could give us an answer :) just purchased one of your tutorials, but i wont get the full acheivements if i cant follow it step by step like you recommend. thanks and hope for your replay.
