Occlude mode is for WYSIWYG selection for Editable Poly/Edit Poly. As you can see from the last a few release, 3dsMax team is putting a lot of effort for modernizing the core and improving performance. It went from 9 fps to 36 fps! This was no simple task and touched the core of 3dsMax. The video I attached has 4 of 25k verts characters with explicit normals(total 100k deforming verts). My test shows 2x to 4x “overall” performance improvement. Now all explicit normal computation is fully safely multithreaded. Finally that effort come to fruition and released in 2022.1.

In that post, I hinted 3dsMax dev is working on improving the situation. Last year I have posted a tip about “ 3dsMax tips #3 How to make imported tree animation 15 times faster“. This is the collection of items for 2022.1 Explicit Normal Performance Improvement I have been making some short videos to showcase the new release of 3dsMax version or Product Update.
