This engine connects Shotgun Pipeline Toolkit (Sgtk) and 3D studio Max. Shotgun will appear as a floating menu bar and will place itself in down the bottom of the UI layout at startup.
In order to use Sgtk with 3ds Max, you need to have the 3dsmax blur python extensions installed. You can find them here: http://code.google.com/p/blur-dev/wiki/Py3dsMax. The Engine currently supports versions 2012 and 2011 of 3ds Max.
If Python is running slowly in 3ds Max or if you notice a pause when 3ds Max starts, this is likely to be because of a bug in the SSL libraries that ship with python. This bug only affects applications which have a significant memory footprint and is therefore not noticable most of the time. However, with something like 3ds Max it may be a problem.
The solution is to replace the python ssl library with a patched version that contains an
upgraded version of the ssl backend library. You can find the _ssl.pyd file here:
And here is a replacement file to use for Python 2.6: _ssl.pyd
