By default, the Mudbox product launches Mudbox Help from the Internet, but you can instead use a local copy of the Help.
Prepare to install the Mudbox Help
Before you install the Mudbox Help, complete the following actions:
- Install Mudbox 2020.
- Download the Mudbox 2020 Help compressed file for your platform from www.autodesk.com/mudbox-helpdownload-enu.
- Extract the files from the compressed file to the desired location.
Note: You can choose to install the Mudbox Help on a shared location such as an internal network or web server. To do so, you must copy the docs directory to a shared location.
When choosing a shared location, ensure that the directory path to the Mudbox Help does the following:
- Points directly to the Help location. For example, \\CompanyServer\SharedLocation\MudboxHelp\docs\Mudbox2020\en_US does not use an alias path.
- Points to the directory containing the index.html file. For example, the path pointing to the English Mudbox Help ends at the \en_US directory.
- Uses either http or https protocol for a web server location.
Note: Help preferences must be set in the
Mudbox product on each computer to access the Help at the new location.
