Hey guys. I edited a 3D model of a hand weapon in my 3DS Max 8 program with the Battlefield Tools script installed.

After editing my 3D model and properly naming all of the materials and objects, I tried exporting the mesh. I got this error (image below) and the program only created a complete RS file but no SM file.

How can I go about fixing this issue so that I can properly export meshes? It's useless without an StandardMesh file!

It's perfect tool!!! Works very fine with 3ds Max 2016, even wihout error which I had on 3ds Max 8 2.75 mdt: Call needs function..

But It doesn't want to load vehicles from mods! I'm choosing load mod: FH or BF18 and nothing happens..
It was the quick way to importing vehicles, now I must using my old computer with older max and plugin.

:( why it doesn't load mods for vehicles?

How did you get it working with Max 2016? I remember trying to install the BF MDT on Max 2015 and it didn't work.

Btw can I you help me out with something? PM.

So you should use tool from script.

I don't know, I just downloaded 2.76 max tool and copied plugins to plugins in max 16 dir and scripts to scripts ;) Maybe Try Max 16.

Anyone got a fix for windows 10?

Trying to export SM/RS files and it doesnt work properly.

When set 3dsmax to run as admin, it works, but then you cannot drag/drop textures in to the material editor.. any takers?

I'm on 3dsmax 2014

Gonna try 2013

Are you running as admin?

Have you changed any permission settings in win10?
I cant belive windows 10 is so shitty.. not even admins are admins on their own computers without changing all permissions...

I'm happy to not have downgraded to that OS.

I'm running the program as Administrator + Compatibility mode (don't remember which version it is on top of my head). Since I am working on a laptop, it also runs on my dedicated graphics card. I don't think I've changed any permission settings tbh. I'll check.

Haven't had any issues with Max tbh, although BC42 has been extremely slow and crashes a lot.
