Struggling to install through gitbash. #39

Closed jjobson98 closed 8 months ago

jjobson98 commented 8 months ago

I've cloned the project, then moved the install.sh to the install directory (C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2023), then in the directory right click, run git bash as admin, and type ./install.sh. It starts to install it then I get this error: ERROR: File "setup.py" or "setup.cfg" not found. Directory cannot be installed in editable mode: C:\

Anyone know how to fix this? I've tried recloning the repo and cloning straight into the install directory

Thanks for your message. You should leave install.sh where it is (in the git clone). Then you should cd to your max installation directory Then you should: /path/to/install/install.sh

(i.e. your working directory should be your max install directory, and from there you should invoke install with the proper path) I hope this works.
