So I was looking and looking and looking for the NW Max plugin for 3dsMax 2014 or later and I couldn't find it and couldn't find it.
Then I found it
NWMax version 0.8c00 updated for 3dsmax2015
It works, in so far as I was able to import a model w/ texture maps... Now I just have to learn how to actually use it!!!
YAY!!!
