Installation
Using the Installation Utility
The installation process requires that Softimage/XSI be properly installed and its license server be running. If this is not the case, the installation will fail.
The installation utility installs the OgreMax Scene Exporter and all its associated files.
There are two installation utilities to choose from:
- OgreMaxSceneExporterInstaller-Win32.exe - Use this utility if you have a 32-bit Softimage/XSI installation. This applies even if you are using a 64-bit version of the Windows operating system.
- OgreMaxSceneExporterInstaller-x64.exe - Use this utility if you have a 64-bit Softimage/XSI installation.
