Have to see if I can give this one a shot. I’m very new at Max though so it should be interesting

I think something might be wrong with the Maya file. The scene has nothing in it nor does the Outliner.

Make sure to check ignore version in the option box of the open menu. This scene was created in Maya 2010.
