Hello Andreas, Thank you for the plugin!
I've downloaded the zip and upacked it. Had a look at the .sh file for the mac install and it was a bit out of data, so I changed the paths a bit to work for Maya 2010. That bit went well. The problem is that the bundle isn't compatible with Maya 2010 :( Here's what maya spits out in the output: // Error: Plug-in, "COLLADA_m2008" was compiled against too old a version of the Maya API and is thus incompatible with the current Maya version. (COLLADA_m2008) // Help ?! :( On Jan 16, 10:04 am, Andreas Engstrom <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi George. > > The reason you are getting only planes and green materials with > visible wire frames is because the dynamic attribute data is missing. > AwayBuilder won't know what classes to use for object and material > creation without that data so those defaults are used. > > I haven't tried the collada exporters you mention but have used > ColladaMaya 3.05B (attached) from feeling software and that works > well.
