Just to add to the above, Datasmith 5.0.3 plugin installs fine with 3ds max 2016, but there is no Datasmith tab in the ribbon. I can still export through max’s dialog box, but I cannot use the direct link feature… (I am not sure if the direct link has been added only after 5.0.3?)
Could anyone please confirm Datasmith 5.0.3 is what I am left with, as I do not really want to upgrade 3ds max, at least in the near future…
Many thanks and have a great day everyone
