Hello sandykoufax,
While you can have Maxwell 2 and Maxwell 3 both installed and functional on your computer (and use both engines, Studios, etc separately or at the same time) the Max plugin is self-excludent, so only one version can be installed in your Max.

Yes, I know.
So I'm asking the way like 'copy and (overwrite)paste' some files that save my time to install/uninstall repeat.

The plug-in consists of the following files:
Code: Select allmax_dir\plugins\maxwell.dlr
max_dir\plugins\maxwellshave.dll
max_dir\scripts\startup\maxwell_camprop.ms
max_dir\scripts\startup\maxwell_materialMerge.ms
max_dir\scripts\maxwell_packngo.ms
You have to replace all these if you want to manually switch between versions (there are also a bunch of icons, but those haven't changed). I think it's easier to just run the installer to do it for you (you can pass the /S flag in the installer command line to perform a silent deployment which doesn't require you to press next next ... finish).
