Welcome back! Containers were released in max2010 so in max 2009 the installer only adds a scene explorer for cameras and lights.You need to upgrade one more time < :

Thanks,

Josh.

I can install no problem, but I’m only seeing two of three scripts, the one for cameras and the one for lights…no containers any ideas?

Please download and install the latest build.

Josh.

Is there a way to maintain editing functionality while objects are hidden?

I like to work with lights and cameras hidden, but still be able to access their editable properties, the way the built-in light lister will let you.

Is that a possibility?

I’m glad you like the extension. I will keep looking to see if i can find out what is causing the problem.

In the meantime, you should uninstall the Beta and re-install the original version (the download is still at the top of the page), which does not test for previous versions. If you load a scene from a previous version, or if you find the explorers missing you will have to load them manually as described above in my message to Steve.

I have downloaded the new scene explorer expansion pack (Beta for 3ds max 2008, 2009, 2010) but still get the same error.

The functionality though is there, I can use all the additional columns in the scene explorer its really just throwing the error when loading a scene.

My configuration is MAX 2010 SP1 with Connection Extension. Installed Plugins are: NodeJoe, RPManager, Switcher and MudWalker. I’ve also installed some Script Packs, but this shouldn’t be an issue, I guess?!?

So, hope this info is useful for you. The expansion is really nice and I’ll leave it installed for now even if it throws the error since I didn’t encounter any additional issues till now. But, of course, if you could solve this issue that would be great

I’m not sure what the problem is, this shouldn’t be generating an error. Is there anything special about your installation that you can tell me? It looks like you are loading a file in max2010 that is made from a previous version, or does it happen everytime you load.

I’ve adjusted the script to make it more robust, will you download it and try again?

It seems I was wrong and it doesn’t work under 3s Max9. My apologies for getting you all excited! I’ll amend the above text.
