Unable to Import .max file

chrisjq opened this issue 3 years ago · comments

While trying to import the 3Dmax file from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:71264 I get the error, using FreeCad 0.19 dev:

OK, I now get this (Also I gave you the wrong thingiverse link: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:832684):

Should be fixed now.
Unfortunately not all 3ds MAX features are supported (e.g. ProBoolean) so the result looks different.

Hi, not sure if this is the right place but I'm getting errors when trying to import a 2013 3dmax.

File "", line 1, in
File "C:\Program Files\FreeCAD 0.19\Mod\Importer3D-master\importer3D.py", line 50, in insert

if (olefile.isOleFile(fileName)):

Hello,
it looks like that the package "olefile" is not installed!
please try the following:
open the command line window (type WIN+R and enter cmd in the dialog box)
enter FreeCAD bin folder (type cd "C:\Program Files\FreeCAD 0.19\bin" in the command line window)
install missing package (type python.exe -m pip install olefile in the command line window)

Got the same "<class 'NameError'>: name 'olefile' is not defined"

Trying the above got me:
Requirement already satisfied: olefile in g:\program files\freecad 0.19\bin\lib\site-packages (0.46)

Using Python 3.8.6+

solved by taking the import out of the try statement
