Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Importing 3ds Max files

I've downloaded the Bonus Tools, but I still can't seem to find any way to import the .3ds/ .max file?
I saw in another forum that somebody said to go to plugin manager, but this was on Windows and I'm unsure of how to do this in OSX.

I'm new to Maya (and OSX) so the simpler the explanation the better!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Use the FBX plugin and transfer using FBX format.
