Maran Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Hi, I was wondering if there is/will be a .Mesh export plugin for 3dsMax 2017. The current one for 3dsMax 2016 does not work in the 2017 version. thanks in advance!
silent Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Hi Maran, You can build it locally. Sources are located inside <SDK>/source/tools/plugins/Max (as well as readme file). Plugin can be built successfully in 2.3.1 and 2.3 SDKs. We are moving from Max / Maya plugins to unified Assets system with FBX (as mesh + animation) as main import format. Thanks!

Hi, when will be this feature supported again? https://developer.unigine.com/forum/topic/2910-3dstudion-max-2014-unigine-2-cannot-export-animation-if-fbx-contain-only-bones/ Our pipeline is now limited to old export plugin...
silent Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Hi Jirka, I've seen your message, but currently I'm still waiting for some feedback from the dev team. Can't say exactly when this feature will be added, sorry. If I will have more information, I will surely let you know. We do understand that it's a very uncomfortable situation. Will hope it will be resolved soon. Sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Thanks for the quick reply, but when I try to build the plugins it keeps giving me the error "Can't find Visual Studio". Is it possible for you guys to quickly build them and upload them somewhere? Cheers!
silent Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Hi Maran. Visual Studio 2013 / 2015 is required to build these plugins. It's better to ask programemers to do this task :) Anyway, in attachment you can find plugins for 2016/2017 Max that are untested and not recommended for usage.

Maran Posted October 24, 2016 Author Posted October 24, 2016 Thanks for the files, I tried them out and they seem to work fine! :) Problem here was that the programmers don't have access to a 3dsMax license.
