How to import back again to max?

Hi all, I have a mesh file that need to import back to max and I can't find an importer or anything similar.

(sorry if I've post this on the wrong forum)

There isn't a .mesh importer. I know that Ultimate Unwrap 3D will load xml ogre mesh and convert them into various formats including their own, loadable via the U3D import and export plugins. You need to use a utility to convert binary .mesh files into ascii first. And ultimate unwrap isn't free.

The only 3D modeler I know of with mesh import is Blender, thats free. I guess you could install Blender, load in your file and save to something 3dsmax likes.

Well, I actually have latest Blender version with the importer, but it makes an error when trying to import something. Better said, it makes an error when clicking on Ogre3D import, as if it had a problem loading the plugin.
