[Closed] PySide in 3dsmax 2016

Mar 09, 2017 7:38 pm

Hi,

So Im trying to run this example:

C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2016\scripts\Python\demoPySideQWidget.py

but I get the error right on the second line of the actual code. ImportError: No module named MaxPlus

import MaxPlus

Do I need to install sth to make this working?

I reinstalled python to version 2.7.3 and now even the first like errors out, this one

from PySide import QtGui

ImportError: No module named PySide. which just mean python has no idea there is some PySide.

I was pretty sure I installed pyside on my computer. But in case that I didnt, reading this:

Applies to 3ds Max 2016
Autodesk 3ds Max ships with a pre-built version of PySide 1.2 compatible with Python 2.7.3.

So does 3ds max 2016 has any PySide build at all? Because it looks like it does not. Or maybe it has to be installed separately?

I have 3dsmax 2016 sp3.
