[sammael]

  hi guys, uhhh im having problem loading the maya 2008 tv exporter. i already followed the instructions carefully but this error occurs: cannot load tvexporter

  i did checked it for autostart and load in the maya plug-in manager but still it wont work, it says it cant find the .mll file, i did put it on its proper directory.

 i read the pdf instruction for the plugin, the instuctions are for v. 7 and 8 thus it apply also in 2008?

The Dev's forgot to say in the guide that you need to put the plugin's into the bin folder not the plugins folder.

I have tried placing the plugins in both the bin folder as well as the plugins folder. The two script files are in the scripts/startup folder. Still the plugin will not load.

Is the plugin broken or am missing something obvious?

I put mine in.

MLL: bin\plug-ins
MEL: scripts\startup

Works fine for me. I'm not sure why it works for others just in the bin\ folder. They must have a path setting somewhere.

Hm, seems that it isn't working in a 64Bit Enviroment.
On a a 32Bit XP it works fine. On two 64 Bit XPs it won't load.

I hope this will be fixed soon!

TrueVision is 32bit only, so you need to execute Maya in 32bit (if this is possible in Maya, I only know it from 3DS Max), because it won't load the plugin is you use 64bit.

Just want to let you guys know that I solved the problem with simply installing Maya 32 Bit on my Windows XP 64Bit. The plugin works then.
