Once you complete the installation, run the 3ds Max FBX plug-in. The header of the FBX Exporter and Importer windows in 3ds Max displays the FBX Version number.

The 3ds Max FBX plug-in that accompanies your version of 3ds Max may not be the most recent version. It is a good practice to check for updates, as each subsequent 3ds Max FBX plug-in version has enhanced functionality, and is available free. See Web updates for instructions on how to verify that your plug-in version is the latest.
