Crosswalk Components and Install Paths
| Crosswalk Common Files | Crosswalk for Softimage | Crosswalk for Max | Crosswalk for Maya | Crosswalk SDK
The tables in this section describe the files and destination folders for all components of the Crosswalk toolset. You can use this information to manually update or troubleshoot your integrations.
This table lists the shared files on which most of the Crosswalk plug-ins have a dependency. These files are installed with both the typical Softimage installation and the standalone Crosswalk installation.

The core dynamic shared library for the Crosswalk SDK. Linux-based Crosswalk plug-ins have a dependency on this library. The library is added to your /usr/Softimage/Softimage folder during the setup process. You can also copy it to your /usr/lib folder instead. Note that if you are using the Crosswalk for Maya integration, you must also add this path to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. The 5.0 designation refers to the version of the Crosswalk integration that was installed. |

Enabling the dotXSISceneConverter Plug-in
After installing the plug-in files to the appropriate folders in the Maya installation path, you must enable the Crosswalk for Maya plug-in (this is required on both Windows and Linux platforms).
1. In Maya, choose Window > Settings/Preferences > Plug-in Manager to open the Plug-in Manager window and display the list of all known plug-ins.
2. Find the dotXSISceneConverter plug-in and select the Loaded and Auto load checkboxes.
You can also use the loadPlugin MEL command from the command line.
