Someone please help! 3DS Max plugin is killing me slowly

Hi guys!

Ok, I have two issues with the latest 3DS max plugin for V2.
Firstly, in the material editor, I cannot see some of the BSDF properties such as Roughness. No matter what I do I cannot make it seem to show up on screen. Ive had this problem for all of the version updates of the plugin.

The first issue was not too bad as I just exported an MXS file and did the materials in Studio but now I cant even export an MXS file from 3DS Max. When I try to do so the Maxwell Translation Window pops up saying "Warining: Invalid path extension (in method setPath)".

This has only just recently started happening so I re-installed the plugin but the same thing is happening.

Can anyone help? I'm going insane trying to figure these problems out!!!
Thanks is advance.

The "invalid path extension" message is normally harmless. It shows up when you haven't set an output image in the global render options, but it doesn't cause the export to fail. Is that the only message you get? Does it produce a MXS file at all?
