Hi, newbie here. This is a very basic question coming from someone with no experience in 3ds max, 3ds max SDK, and little knowledge in C++. But still I want to develop a plugin.
I've been all over the documentation trying to figure out the workflow of c++ and 3ds max, but couldn't find that, I have learned a bit more about the plug-in architecture and other topics surrounding plug-ins. I did the Lesson 1, and now I want to do something other than manipulate scenes and meshes.
How do I start scripting in C++ for 3ds Max? Should I write my code in the project_name.cpp? How does 3ds Max receive commands from my code? Is there a way to test my code "on the fly" with 3ds max or do I need to launch 3ds max and select my plug in?
I apologize in advance if my questions are "bad" in any sense, but I just need some direction and starting point.
