but unfortunately i get this error " --Runtime error:dotnet runtime exception: An attempt was made to load an assembly from a network location which would have caused the assembly to be sandboxed in preious versions of .Net Framework. This release of the .Net framework does not enable CAS policy by default, so this load may be dangerous. if this load is not intended to sandbox the assembly, please enable the loadfromremoatesources swtich. see http://go.micsrosoft.com/fwlink/?linkId=155569 for more information"

I know I am not the first one around here, but I am dying to have a 2014 version. Any chance it would happen? Just starting on a massive project and can't live without HCG.
Thanks in advance!

Search bar,

Hi, do you think you could add a search bar??
I have a lot of 3ds max files to search but it could be very helpful to have a search bar that you could just type what you search and drag it to my 3ds max scene.

thank you. ps

sorry for my english haha
