How to install KRAY3
Re: How to install KRAY3
Sorry, just saw this:

There should be something like that bundled with the package.
Also the menu config file.

For me, this is the most simple solution to update from RC2 to RC3:
- close layout & modeler
- overwrite all k3 files
- launch layout, load a previous scene and hit f9
- done....

Just override files.
This can change in future with new modules but I will inform about it (prefer installation from Lightwave Add Plugins)
Re: How to install KRAY3
Maybe this sounds very stupid but after some time i forget how previous version was installed and ask myself again :
- where do all the files need to go?
- can I throw all files (common and windows) together in a directory?
- does this directory need to be in LW directory?
- should previous version be removed first?
- where is the menu(file)?
etc. So a short description in textfile would be very helpfull
Imo menu branch should be included with every release even if it doesn't change if only it is to avoid confusion.

Re: How to install KRAY3
This is very simply:
- create folder K2 and K3
- put everything what you need from K2 to K2 folder
- put everything what you need from K3 to K3 folder (example for x64 version + LW11.x-2015.x):
