Created an attachment (id=16385) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=16385) Output trying to register the program
When running 3DS Max 7, you will get a Window that loads up asking if you want to run the program or activate it. If you choose the option to activate it, a pop-up will display which is supposed to show all the options for activating your copy of the program. Unfortunately, when it loads up all that is inside of it is a blank screen with two bullets on the top and a line under it.
The console spit out a few fixmes related to shdocvw and mshtml mainly (which I will attach as well as a screenshot). I tried using dll overrides for shdocvw, shwapi and mshtml but all it did was silence the errors and keep the registration window from even popping up...
I'm not sure the URL is even good to download 3DS Max 7 at anymore, so I'll keep looking if I have to.
Also, 3DS Max 7 will give you a 30 day grace period before they require you to register it.
