Is it possible to make it work for 3ds max 2016?

[guruas3]

I tried to install this extension to a more recent version of 3ds max 2016 and i can't export it to awd because i get "Don't know how to save to that file type".
And when starting 3ds max i get "maxawdexporter dle is not made for this version of the program".
I know this repo is not supported anymore but is it possible to make it work for 2016 with just small changes?
Thanks

Hey

i guess its possible to make the update with just small changes.

What would need to be done is do recompile the plugin with the SDK provided with 3dsmax2016.

With a bit of luck there will not be much changes need to be done in the code to have it work in 2016.

But i have no 2016 version of 3dsmax, and also time is very short these days, so i do not think that i can do the update in near future.

I am sure i will update the plugin at some point, but right now i can not tell you when that will happen.

A easier way for you would be to use a earlier version of 3dsmax.

I need the plugin for 3ds max 2020 version. Is there anyone to help generate the plugin?!!!!!!!!!!!

Last time I used it half a year ago, still had to use 3ds 2014.
I don't think you'll get any help, either you can update plugin yourself, or you should use 2014.

incubatio,

Do you have source code for the plugin to modify.

Paste the link if you have.

@nsjd19
the source code of the plugin is here on github.
On this page you are on the "issues" tab, click the "code" tab.
