please download http://www.krz9000.net/test.rar.

it contains a 3dmax .max scene with a group of edit-poly-objects and a maxwell camera.
with the latest plugin it is not possible to create a .mxs-file.
as soon as you erase the group and place a simple box object it will create the .mxs.
now the tricky part: i changed back to the beta-plugin and it creates a .mxs!

please plugin-developers take a look into this issue. there has to be a error somewhere since it clearly worked before. i tried to hunt the problem down but i can only say that i can export the group as e.g. obj and reimport and then it work. but this is not a usable solution for me since i need the modifierstack on my objects intact.(in my test scene i collapsed the mesh)

please let me know if you have the same problem or if that test-scene worked for you.

im on winxp64, amd-x2-3800, 2gig ddr400 ram, nvidia 6800gt

thats good to know.

seems like all those threats are moved or deleted. i try to find some info about it with the search.

thanks for the help

I can see these threads without problems Anyway, if you search "setTriangleUVW" you'll find it

i have the same problem only i dont get an info window. it just crashes but the file worked great in rc5.

can't see the topics either and instead of creating mxs it opens an existing one in that directory!!!!
