[Closed] Retrieving the 3dsMax File Thumbnail via DotNet

My computer is the only one with MAX SDK installed, could this by the problem?

ooh ,my reply went back in time!

good point Matan, I hadn’t thought of that, the same is true of my computer that I tested this on. Can you try this and verify for me?

I used the installation from the ms site

the board is doing funny things with my replies at the mo matan, sorry if it’s not making sense, i edited my reply to include your question.

My IT guy has already went home and the only max dvd I could find is 2009 so I installed sdk 2009 and no luck there, still the same problem

ok matan. Can you confirm if the small utility included in the download (the .net application that runs outside max) will work? This runs in x86 space. You will need a different version of DSOfile that has been compiled for x64 for it to work in a 64bit max environment. This will need to be placed into the system32 folder, which ironically is the folder for 64bit dlls. The systemWOW64 folder is the place for 32bit dlls as WOW64 is the 32bit emulator. attached is DSOfile compiled to 64bit.
