I've experienced that some materials when are downloaded from the
Maxwell come as scripts.
I d'ont know what to do with them..
It is bad because some are really nice one..
Has anyone a clue.....?
Thanks..

Hey Sebastien.
What extension are the scripts? (e.g. .exe, .zip etc) And can you post a small part of it here?
Cheers,
Dr Merman

Hi Tom,
I don't know all of them but let say for example
Milky white plastic-4233
or
filtered olive oil 2916, I was actually wondering if this had eventually to do with the fact that i'm downloading with Safari as mac user...
I'll give it a try under Window to see if it makes a difference..
Thanks for your reply
PS Dear Dr Merman I hope that this post will help you to understand my problem, it is just that iI click on download I just get a new fenster full of script text and nothing else..

It seems you're having problems with materials that are not packaged as zip files, but are just uploaded as mxm. Your browser thinks it's something else.

Hi tom
You mean it worth trying it with another browser like Explorer for example..?
Thanks

Yes, I agree with Mihai and you should try with another browser or play with your current browser's file type settings.

Hi Sebastien
you can load them with Safari too: right click > download linked file, and then manually change the file name extension (delete ".txt").
