Something cool there in that if you click on the pluggin link you can actually download the 3dmax pluggin. Now will it work in the mag version. I don't know I don't have the mag here. There is also limits on 3ds format in that there using the old one. That says you can only have 65335 polys and any textures got to use the old 6.3 naming convention. You know think dos. plntl.3ds. Those funny file names. It says that it will break big meshes up to smaller sets if it has to so you'd have to import all the sets one at a time them reassemble the mesh in Vue. Simple really. Now does it work with the meg version? Somebody give it a try. I'm not going to hold my breath. I think everyone has been mislead. There is always a catch. That's a expensive program I can't see them giving a previous verion away for free. Things like that don't happen usually.
