Maxscript Custom Attributes
Hello!
I have tried to use custom attributes for tools that I want to make but I get a undefined function or class when I open the scene that has a object with my custom attributes.
Usually I add all the function by hand inside the custom attributes but I started to learn about FileIn() that seem really usefull to me.
Thanks in advance for the big help
Here is my code:

1) Get the root position of the installed position of 3ds max
2) Get in the script file and then in the FolderName of the function
3) Add all the function inside the vArray in a FileIn Loop
*/
for i = 1 to vArray.count do
(
FolderPosition = ((GetDir #maxroot)+"\scripts\\" +FolderName + "\\")
FileIn(FolderPosition + vArray[i])
)
)
