    @Mario

    I have tried latest version in max 2010 and it works great, texturing is much faster now, but still plugin doesn't work in max 2012.

    I still can't get the FastPath to import, I'm again getting only the MainPath. I tried driving a new fast path and saving the AIW but it didn't help.

    If it's any help I've attached two rF2 AIW files, one with the old fast path and one with the re-done one. Perhaps you can track down the correct fast path coordinates through the differences between them?

    I get two splines but the problem is they are the same coords.

    The new rfactor2 AIW file uses another form of calculation for the fast line.
    Need more information from ISI.
    old AIW

    Code:
    wp_path=(3.2652,0.0000)
    new AIW
    Code:
    wp_pathinfo2=(0,-6.3765,0.0197,74.3945)
    wp_oriantation=(0,-0.0037,-1.5731,-0.0009)
    wp_pathflags=(0,0)
    wp_pathinfo2=(1,-5.1470,0.0286,55.8098)
    wp_oriantation=(1,-0.0044,-1.5699,-0.0006)
    wp_pathflags=(1,0)
    wp_pathinfo2=(2,6.2742,0.0444,53.8849)

    very diferent!.
    currently my suggestion is to get the AIW version of RF1 and use it to import to the max.

    Version 1.4
    + Intersect Polygons
    + Copy Material ( don't copy material name and stage 1)
    + Select double Faces ( don't work yet)
    + Clean Button now clean material list and clean internal memory of max (if max freeze wait 1 min).

    links in first post

    Hello together,

    I'm new to 3DSMax and having troubles get the gMaterialTool installed. Can someone provide a more detailed explanation how to install the Macro?

    Thanks in advance.

    1- In MAXscript menu run the script (can be in the desktop)
    2- Go to “customize user interface” chose menu or toolbar tab. In Category select “MMtools” and drag "Gmaterialtool" into a menu or toolbar.
