Seems there is an issue with the MEL script radio button collection definitions - this thread helped:

[maya2egg 2010 / 2011)

comment out each of the radio button collection “setParent…” then try again. Worked for me - here is an example of one of the radio collections :

radioCollection exportOptionsRC;
                        radioButton
                                -label "Mesh"
                                -select
                                -onCommand ( "exportOptionsUI" )
                                chooseMeshRB;
                        radioButton
                                -label "Actor"
                                -onCommand ( "exportOptionsUI" )
                                chooseActorRB;
                        radioButton
                                -label "Animation"
                                -onCommand ( "exportOptionsUI" )
                                chooseAnimationRB;
                        radioButton
                                -label "Both"
                                -onCommand ( "exportOptionsUI" )
                                chooseBothRB;
                        radioButton
                                -label "Pose"
                                -onCommand ( "exportOptionsUI" )
                                choosePoseRB;
                setParent ..;  //drop out of exportOptionsRC

and just comment out the ‘setParent’ like so:

//setParent ..;  //drop out of exportOptionsRC

As for the crashing that was mentioned in the above thread, I haven’t gotten to exporting just yet. If I have an inclination, I might re-work this script as a proper Maya-Python script with QT interface. Although I doubt the crashing that was mentioned will have anything to do with the UI of the script… probably more with the actual .mll compiled exporter.

Cheers,
D.
