Title: 3ds max Plugin Error
Post by: Ido_Alpha_Omega on 2005-07-28 01:34:06

Every time I try to load the asciiimp.dli plugin with 3dsmax 7, I get this error:

DLL <C:\3dsmax7\plugins\asciiimp.dli> failed to initialize.
Error code: 126 - The specified module could not be found.

Is this a common error? Any way to fix it?

I get this error, too, however, it's seems like there's no way to get around it...  -_-

It's because of missing .dlls... check the dependencies of the plugin file (with a tool like MSVC's depends.exe).

Smooth idea Qhimm. I opened it and it shows that these dll's are needed:

windows-like: comctl32.dll  advapi32.dll  user32.dll  gdi32.dll  kernel32.dll

3ds max-like:  core.dll  geom.dll  maxutil.dll  mesh.dll

visual studio-like:  msvcp71d.dll  msvcr71.dll

I think that you have the windows dll's, but you are missing either visual studio ones, or 3ds max ones.

Same here, I even copied all of the dlls into the 3dsmax7 folder (where msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll reside) and into the plugins folder, but no joy.

Hmm, I have no idea about this ... just to be sure, are you using this one ? It should work for max 6 & 7 -http://mirex.mypage.sk/FILES/asciiimp_max6.rar

I've actually tried using a bunch of different ones, and, yes, that one doesn't work either.

I finally got it to work...
I lacked these visual studio dll's: msvcr71d.dll, msvcp71d.dll (note the -d)

If anybody needs them you can get them here... Just put them in your 3dsmax7 folder.
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr71d
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcp71d

Also don't put the asciiimp.dli in the plugins folder just put it in the 3dsmax7 folder.

I can finally import the ASE files (after I overwrote the .DLLs), but the color info isn't showing up, all I get is something like this:

Have you applied a material with the "vertex color" map for diffuse color? At least I think that was how you exposed it...
