Hi Elvissuperstar007,

Thank you for reporting this issue.
I think I could reproduce it.
It seems caused by a wrong update when the Texture environment map is selected in the material editor while dragging the timeline.
This should be fixed in the next release.

For now, the work around is to select another texture in the material editor when dragging the timeline.. sorry about that !

But the best solution is to move the 'Texture environment' to a Daylight object.
It internally creates the same Texture environment, and gives the option to setup the 3dsMax viewport to have a display that matches the Octane render :

(basically, from Render settings / Support tab / Environment : click on the Help button, and select "Create Octane daylight ..")

Thanks
