whenever I try to add the blitzcreig plugins into my systems folder, it says that one of them is being used by another user and to try back again, I have rebooted my comp at least 20 times and it still won't work. any ideas?

How are you trying to add? Through 3DS Max, or by copy and pasting?

on some operating systems some of the .dlls are already in the system folder just copy all exept that one and it should work fine.

no I'm not, it just won't let me do anythng, this is what I do, ok first off, I go into Blitzcreig and copy the 4 .dll things, then I go to my Windows system folder, after that I restart my comp and open up my map, when I go to Export, I lead it to my root directory and save it as Island.jms and it says "Don't know how to save file type"

your computer program just has its own unique way of saying "i love you"

Ok, here is how you instal blitzcreig plugin, I'm only gonna type it once. What you do:
-1st copy the five dlls that includes the dle into the 3dsmax/plugin folder.
-2nd go to your C:\WNDOWS\system32 and paste 4 dlls in there. (that does not include the .dle)
-3rd here is where the problem comes in. IN some cases when you try to paste the four dlls into the system32 directory you might get a screen that says "cannot copy the file, file is being used by another program"
-4th if you get that screen here is what you do, you press CTRL+ALT+DEL then end task all of the programs that you have running except the ones that you cant end task like explorer.
-5th once you end task all of the programs except the system files then you have to try pasting the files again into the System32 folder.
-6th if you were able to paste all 4 dlls after you end tasked then you're set.
-7th now you can restart your computer and Enjoy!

--------This is how the readme should have looked when it was put into the blitzcreig compressed file----------------------

also, you CAN use the chimp exporter (NOT a plugin, a MAXSCRIPT) if u must. I don't rocommend doing this unless u have to, though. Chimp goes into the scripts folder in 3ds max. You can get it here on the new files forum - http://files2.halomods.com/viewtopic.ph ... ight=chimp

good luck

Dll <C:\3dsmax7\plugins\Blitzkreig.dle> failed to initialize.
Error code 127- the specified prcedure could not be found.
