Step 1: Unzip DiamantTools1.0.zip to your local C drive. There should be a folder called DiamantTools1.0 located in C:/DiamantTools1.0

(NOTE: you can copy the folder anywhere on your c drive as long as you edit the modules folder to point to the location)

Step 2: In the DiamantTools1.0 folder there is a folder called "modules" .. copy that folder into your install directory of Maya. 
For example "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2011" or "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2012"  If there is already a modules folder in there, you can copy the text
file that lives in the modules folder to the already existant modules folder in your Maya path directory. 

(NOTE: if you placed the Diamant Tools folder in a different directory besides C:/DiamantTools1.0, you will need to edit the text file that is inside the modules folder. You will see
text that points to the C:/DiamantTools1.0 directory in there.. just modify it to the directory you placed the folder)

Step 3: Run Maya. Go to "Window, Settings/Preferences, Plug-In Manager" and scroll to the bottom. You should see DModelingTool_"version"_"operating system".mll there. Click the "Loaded" checkbox
and or "Auto load" if needed.

Step 4: If this is the first time loadin the tool, a window will pop up asking which Shelf you would like to place the Diamant Tools Icon to launch the window. Select the shelf
from the list and click the Button to add the shelfButton. This should only happen if a Shelf button is not there to run Diamant Tools.

You will also be prompted for an activation code. You can run the trial mode by clicking the "Try" button.

Step 5: Find the new icon calle D Tools and click it! That should launch the Diamant Tools window!


Diamant MOdeling Tools will try to auto update if an internet connection is found. You can disable this by going into the update menu and unchecking "Auto Update"

Diamant MOdeling Tools does "NOT" require an internet connection to run!
