Hi folks,

surprisingly, sockets import didn`t work well for me.

I was really carefully reading through this article

after few hours of attempts and googling I found this

but still having problem getting sockets to show up in socket manager.

Please point me in right direction on how to solve that issue.

Thank you very much in advance!

ok, solved this issue by checking “Combine meshes” in import dialog.

few more things to point out:

  1. make sure you have unit setup in 3ds max done right otherwise socket will be in wrong position.
  2. mesh which you want to be attached into socket would not be exported, you should export it separately and then attach into socket of your object in the editor.
