3dsMax: Xoliulshader not working on a different PC

Z3NZY · Jun 2013

I'm trying to open my files on a different PC but xoliulshader is having issues.
The geometry with the my current textured xoliulshader slots leave the item with just wires. See through.

If I create a new slot and load things there it's fine, but I've given the file to someone else and need to know how to allow it to work on a different PC automatically.

It's a bit bugged right now, but i think you can solve a lot of issues by just doing proper asset tracking references. He won't have the same absolute paths as you do, so even with any material or shader there would be issues.

Would a mount drive script thing work to help the problem?
A lecturer gave us one a while back.

Oh, and i'm using xoliulshader2 as well. if that means anything more.

Thanks by the way

Try and use a generic path.

Something like C:/Example_Name

Keep all the files in that folder, without any sub-folders.

I'm not sure if you're familiar with asset tracking in Max ? it allows you to set relative instead of absolute paths...

Hey. I tried the asset tracking. Weird stuff happened lol, but it didn't work. It might just be the PC I was on.
Thanks for the help though guys.

And Xoliulshader2 is awesome. It's been fantastic to use. Thanks.
