Thank you, great work :)
g1.bmp and g2.bmp is missing and gives an runtime error in my Max Design 2012.
I just commented these bmp's out.

for 3ds max design users
for users of 3ds max design, now the script come with alternative manual installation method.

Thank you!
@tassel...
I have totally forget 3ds max design :(
the installer read value from registry key and test if there is a compatible 3ds max version installed on your machine.
3ds max (normal) has the following registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Autodesk\3dsmax\
however 3dsmax design has the following registry key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Autodesk\3dsMaxDesign\
this is why the installer didn't work...I will create one for 3ds max design in a later time.
Yeah.
Good work man...
Congratulation.
