DTS plugin in max 7 plugin manager but not in available utilitie

by Browser_ice · in Artist Corner · 10/22/2007 (5:18 pm) · 3 replies

I have downloaded the DTS exporter for Max 7 SP1 and placed it in my plugins folder.

Upon starting Max 7, if I go in the plugin manager, I do see it.

But if in the utilities tab of the command pannel, I click the More button, I do not see it. If I click the Set button, I do not see it either.

What's wrong ???

I think you downloaded the Max 7/8 DTS exporter PLUS.. I have the same problem. However I have the regular exporter plugin installed as well and it will bring up the DTS Utility panel. The difference I'd noticed when exporting is that the PLUS exporter exports a lot faster, while the regular exporter took a few minutes.
I just use the utility panel to embed shape, register detail, and make sequences then export using the PLUS exporter under Export / Torque DTS Shape *.dts

Max 6.0-8.0 Exporter
Just extract the Max6-7-8 \ max2dtsExporter.dle into the 3DS Max 7 "plugins" folder

Yes that was the problem. I had downloaded the Max 7/8 exporter Plus instead of the other Max 7/8 one.

Once I downloaded the other one, its working fine now.

I only have a problem about the DTS once exported as my first DTS object (http://www.garagegames.com/mg/forums/result.thread.php?qt=68942)
