Finally I installed numpy with blender 2.63, I dont know why but it worked for me.

Maketarget and Makeface have the same problem, I press the button "import base objet" in maketarget or "create base character" in makeface and I get the following error message:

MakeTarget (in MH alpha 7) looks for the base mesh in the directory that MH was installed in, so you need to specify that in the MH Program Path field at the top of the Maketarget panel; the default guess is the default install directory on windows. So if you type in the path to your MH directory, things should work fine.

You only need to specify this once. If you press Save Settings, you can use Restore Settings to get it back next time.

This is quite confusting, and MakeTarget has changed considerably in svn to make it more user friendly. However, the svn version works with the new base mesh, which will replace the current one once most targets are done. It may be a good idea to make targets for the new mesh if you want to keep them for long. There is a conversion utility (ConvertTarget), but it does not work perfectly.
