| Bug Number | Description |
| MAYA-22330 | Live Connection sometimes fail between Maya and
MotionBuilder.
Workaround: After MotionBuilder starts and shows 'Connected to Maya', there is a small 'Update' button by side of 'Connected to Maya' status. If you click on 'Update' and then try to do 'Live Connection' from Maya, it succeeds everytime. After that there are no more Live Connection issues. |
| MOBU-5675 | MotionBuilder crashes after Send To in 3dsMax from a fresh
