3ds Sequoia integration Script not working - please help

Submitted by xcidius on Sat, 2022-12-10 16:38

Hello everyone, apologies upfront as I lack the programming knowledge to understand the problem I am having. I have been trying to utilize Thinkbox Sequoia Meshing, the program comes with 3ds integration maxscript for loading Seq. .xmesh into 3ds.

They have provided a .ms file which I have loaded and run. This creates a toolbar button that loads the sequential xmesh files. Whenever I run the script and point the macro to the correct file, once I click load I get this error.

-- MAXScript Rollout Handler Exception:
-- Type error: Call needs function or class, got: undefined

The listener window refers to line 261 and 285, here is the snippet of the code between those to lines:

261 being the first line and 285 being the last bracket. I will continue to try and educate myself to further understand this, but I figured reaching would be a catalyst for learning.

Thank you!!!!!

(
    							local theLoader = XMeshLoader()
    							theLoader.renderSequence = theCurrentFile
    							theLoader.name = "XMesh_"+getfilenamefile theCurrentFile
    							theLoader.loadSingleFrame = true
    							theLoader.useFileLengthUnit = true
    							theLoader.viewportSequenceID = 0
    							theLoader.showIcon = false
    							append newObjects theLoader
    							if chk_assignMaterials.checked do
    							(
    								local theTextures = getPossibleTextures theCurrentFile
    								if theTextures.count > 0 do
    								(
    									local theMat = StandardMaterial name:("MAT_"+getFileNameFile theCurrentFile)
    									theMat.diffusemap = bitmapTexture name:("MAP_"+getFileNameFile theCurrentFile) filename:theTextures[1]
    									if chk_selfIlluminated.checked do theMat.selfIllumAmount = 100.0
    									theLoader.material = theMat
    									showTextureMap theMat chk_showTextures.checked
    								)
    							)
