Well im running the 64bit version of 3DS, is your plugin only 32bit? The file i downloaded is the one from your first post
(Im not sure why the error is even mentioning anything about 32bit...)

Hi Gildor,

I'm getting "Unrecognized file type" when attempting to load a PSK file into Maya 2016. I may have installed the plug-in incorrectly, or attempting to import the file incorrectly. Any help in direction on steps or tutorial will be helpful.

I modified my maya.env to point to the location I put the plug-in. Maya 2016 recognizes the ActorX.mll in the Plug-in Manager, and it's checked to Loaded and Auto Load. Says it's using Plug-in version 2.50 and For API version: 201607.

Thanks for supporting such a plug-in!

Hi.
This is EXPORTER, i.e. with this plugin you can EXPORT data from Max or Maya to PSK format. It doesn't add capability to IMPORT (i.e. load) file into the application.

Haha, thanks Gildor. I've been up too late. I must have missed that. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Hi.
This thread is about EXPORTER. For import purposes, I wrote ActorX Importer script for 3ds Max. Other modeling software is unsupported by me.

Hey Gildor, thanks for producing such awesome tools! I'm not sure if I'm just too much of a 3ds max newb to get this, but I'm having a problem with the installation. I'm running your other script to import a .psk, and it works just fine. I'm using 3ds max 2016 64 bit on a student liscence. The install of the plugin via plugin manager seems to go okay, but there's no option under the "export" tab for .psk even with the plugin loaded, and when I try to export with a .psk extension it reads "don't know how to save to that type". Is there a different export process I need to go through, or another file I need to load? If that fails, is there any way to turn the source code into a script that can be ran instead?

Ty for any/all help

Hi,
Yes, it is different. Check this page - it is common for Max and Maya plugins
https://api.unrealengine.com/udk/Two/ActorX.html

and it has links to separate tutorial pages.
