@chadmv Regarding Pyblish examples maybe this link could be worthwhile. They are not focused on Pyblish per se but on Avalon, but they all run publishing with Pyblish... so they might have some extra "pipeline things" but the publishing all runs through Pyblish.
I believe most of those avalon configs have the code laid out so that the Pyblish plug-ins are somewhere in {config}/plugins/{host}/publish - for example like this (maya). or this (maya) or this (houdini).
So they won't be "drag and drop" example plug-ins for your first time in Pyblish, but a lot of host-specific validations you can probably pick and customize for your own use.
The only thing you might run into is issues with QML calling 3ds from a thread, have a look at how the other integration dealt with this.
Typically it's a function provided by Maya/Houdini/etc to move another function to the main thread, I bet 3ds has something like it
Or, it's happy being called from a thread in which case you don't need it
Thanks again!
Pyblish QML would run from any host so long as it can run Python, the host doesn't need Qt or bindings
Morning all! @mottosso I've managed to run Pyblish inside 3ds Max, but it hangs on the Pyblish startup screen as above.
I'm using Python 3.7, PyQt5.15.1 and latest Pyblish QML 1.11.4.
Thank you in advance! :)

Are you able to see why?
What are you calling to get to there?
I would try and break down the
show function, call each line yourself until you hit the point whereby it hangs
It likely doesn't crash, it likely is just waiting for input from somewhere
See if you can remove the call to the splash screen from within
show
It was interesting that when using my previous version of Pyblish QML 1.10.2, by just switching the order of the binding in the QT.py file it works without problems
def _install():
# Default order (customise order and content via QT_PREFERRED_BINDING)
default_order = ("PyQt5", "PySide2", "PySide", "PyQt4")
preferred_order = list(
b for b in QT_PREFERRED_BINDING.split(os.pathsep) if b
Ah cool will do that :)
thank you!
QML was made with 5.12 or earlier I think
cheers for the heads up
Good to know Lite works in 3ds, I haven't had a chance to test that yet!
Hmmm, here's an old branch in our fork which was created by my colleague for working with 3dsMax. :point_down:
https://github.com/MoonShineVFX/pyblish-qml/tree/3dsmax
Not sure how it works now though, but I remember he did pull it off.
That's really interesting! Thanks @davidlatwe ! :)
I'm currently stuck with the latest version of Pyblish QML and Python 3.7.
But I manage to run it with production versions, above

Also by changing the QT Binding order of PySide2 and PyQt5
