Helio 3ds Max Plugin Installation Guide

Installing the Helio 3ds Max plugin is a simple process. This guide will walk you through the steps to install the plugin and get you up and running in no time.


Installation

  1. Download the latest release of the Helio 3ds Max plugin from the Helio Client. The plugin is distributed as an .exe file and is called `Helio_Native_Plugin.exe`.

  2. Run the `Helio_Native_Plugin.exe` file. This will open the installer. Click `Next` to continue.

  3. Select the user you wish to install the plugin for, just you or all users. Click `Next` to continue.

  4. Select the installation location for the plugin. Click `Next` to continue.

    The installation location can be any location on your computer. The default location is `C:\Program Files\Helio Native`.

  5. Click `Install` to begin the installation process.

  6. Once the installation is complete, click `Finish` to close the installer.


Now that the plugin is installed, you have to run the post-install script to complete the installation process.

This can be done by going to the start menu and searching for `Helio Native Plugin` and running it.

This will bring up a dialog box with 2 buttons: `Install Plugin` and `Check for Updates`. Click `Install` to complete the installation process.

This will install the plugin for all supported versions of 3ds Max on your computer.
