Follow this procedure when manually setting up the 3ds Max plug-in.
Exit 3ds Max if it is currently running.
Copy the following plug-in files (which are included in the package) to: [3ds Max folder location]/plugins.
NW4C_Export.dle
Copy the following script files included in the package to: [3ds Max folder location]/Scripts/Startup.
NW4C_menu.ms
NW4C_mtl.ms.inc
NW4C_node.ms.inc
NW4C_utils.ms.inc
Be sure to use the version of NW4C_Export.dle
that matches the version of 3ds Max that you are using.
Start 3ds Max.
If NW4C_ForBanner has been added to the 3ds Max menu, the installation is complete.
If an error such as "Failed to initialize dle file" appears when you attempt to start 3ds Max, download and install the security update patch from the following URL.
Select vcredist_x86.exe for the 32-bit version of 3ds Max and vcredist_x64 for the 64-bit version.
To update the plug-in, use the same installation procedure to overwrite the older versions of the plug-in files with the newer versions.
Creative Studio must be installed in order to use the merge and optimization operations of the Export plug-in because these processes are linked to Creative Studio.
(Optimization and Merge menu features included in Creative Studio are called inside the exporter.)
First shut down 3ds Max normally and then delete installed files.
