I use Windows 64 bit OS and install the latest plugin for maya 8.0 but it did'n t work properly. when I check maxwell.ml on plugin manager of Maya, Maya said to me that it terminates unexpectedly.
does someone knows why it happen?

You could always load up the 32bit version and run that. I have done that and it runs fine.

Guys, thank you for telling me.
OK, we have to wait for the upcoming plugin with 64 bitOS.

We have a 64-bit version ready but we're still working on fixing some bugs that have been reported since the plug-in was released. When those bugs are fixed we'll release a new version that will include the 64-bit plug-in. We thought we'd have everything sorted out this week, but one particular problem is taking longer than expected.
