Links and embedded videos are preserved as part of the historical record.Thanks to a partnership with HP and Intel, the first plug-ins for the new 64-bit versions of 3ds Max and Maya are now available. They were developed by members of the Autodesk Developer Network (ADN) Sparks program. HP and Intel provided several 64-bit workstations so that the add-on modules could be ported in time for the launch of the new software versions.
The following 64-bit plug-ins for 3ds Max 9 and Maya 8 are available so far:
