Installation Procedure

Installation Procedure

The following procedure explains how to manually install the plug-in.

Installation Procedure

Softimage Shutdown

Exit Softimage if it is currently running.

Prepare the Plug-In Files

Copy the following plug-in files (which are included in the package) to: [Softimage folder location]/Application/Plugins.

Be sure to use a version of NW4C_ForBanner_Export.dll that matches the version of Softimage you are using.


Verification

Start Softimage.

If NW4C_ForBanner has been added to the Softimage menu, the installation is complete.



Updating the Plug-In

To update the plug-in, use the same installation procedure to overwrite older versions of the plug-in files with the newer versions.


Installing Creative Studio

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.)

Uninstalling the Plug-In

To uninstall the plug-in, delete the installed files after performing a normal termination of Softimage.

Installation/Uninstallation-Related Errors and Warnings

If an error related to installation or uninstallation occurs, it is displayed by Script Editor and on the status line at the bottom of the Softimage screen. Errors you should be particularly aware of are described here.
