Camera creation problem.

Hi,
When I create a camera in 3dsmax it doesn't show Maxwell parameters. It happens always with new and old scenes.
I'm using 3dsmax9 64bits.

Are you clicking your modify tab after you create the camera?
I just tried it and it works fine here.

Yep, yep. Works fine there, you say?
Maybe reinstalling max plugin solves it. Something might have happened cause I think I remember checking that tab looking for something new after installing and it was there.

Well, reinstalling max plugin solved it without much mess. I'm happy again. I wonder what happened.

Maybe the camera script was deleted from \Scripts directory somehow. Still, it reports script errors in MAXScript window when placing your camera in the scene, but that window is invisible by default, so you won't see any errors/warnings. :)
By reinstalling the plug-in, the installer puts the camera script back.

When I loaded an old (Mental Ray) scene and modified it with maxwell materials I couldn't enter a negative shift value.
So I deleted the camera and made another one with crtl + c. That one worked fine.
I know it's a bit offtopic, but perhaps they can have a closer look at 3ds MAX camera's in combination with Maxwell.

Could you strip down your scene to the camera and send it to me?

It's in your mailbox now.

Fixed and available for the next update. fellazb's problem was only with saved cameras having a correction modifier applied.
