Any word on a fixed version of the 3dsmax cas exporter yet? I need to edit a lot of strat map models.

[Darkarbiter]

For example, "AUTODESK 3D Studio Max V9.0 X32 X64 Xforce" (its full name) is a right program?

Best post ever.

LMAO!!!

What makes it even more stupid is in the comments it says you can just dl the keygen from that torrent and dl the main thing as a trial and use the keygen on the trial.

[sud commander]

[TMSKILZ]

Sure does mate I've just been using it to edit .cas symbols in 3ds max 2010 and it's imported every other .cas file I've tried.

[Automatix]

Hi i am using The 2009 3ds MAX i I tried to "instal" (I copied it by read me) this files for 3ds MAx 9 but when i launch 3ds MAX so it wrote that plugin isn't compatible with my version. any help?

[bobbin]

Just to clear something up as a few people keep making the same mistake (including me for a while), this exporter is for 3dsmax 7, 8 and 9, not 3dsMax 2009, 2010 etc.
