I hope this is the right forum.. anyways, Hi! I'm working on a Unreal 4 game, and to get cloth to work I've learned I should use a Nividias PhysX plug-in for Maya. But when I install the plug-in nothing appears in Maya.

I downloaded NVIDIA_PhysX_For_Autodesk_Maya_2013_64bit_3.00.01116.02380.msi from Nividias site (I'm running Maya 2013 on a 64 bit system) and installed it. All files seem to be there, I can even open the sample scenes and see them in action. But Maya don't get a PhysX menu, and the PhysX shelf is empty.

I opened a sample scene with a flag and the cloth simulation worked fine. I can even see the "Clothing" tab in the Attribute Editor and it all looks OK, but without the menus I have no idea how to apply it on my own models.
And on top of that, now every time I close Maya it says "Cannot delete the last shelf." =/

Is there anything I've missed? or do I just have to reinstall Maya and try again?
I really hope this can be solved =<

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
