And in what file Aqsis path shlould be set?
This time MH can't find Aqsis.
I'm a bit surprised it didn't look for aqsis.exe in Program Files/Aqsis/bin

Makehuman does not guess where aqsis is, it uses the path variable. Is the aqsis path in your path? Type path in a command prompt to see the path variable.

I see. So how can I change the path variable value using the command prompt? Or should it be set in some file?

If you change it in the command prompt, it is only changed for that session, so

SET PATH=%PATH%;"C:\Program Files\Aqsis\bin"
makehuman

would work

A more permanent change is through the windows settings: http://geekswithblogs.net/renso/archive ... ows-7.aspx

Comment line 130 in makehuman\apps\mh2\mh2povray.py

print mh2povray_ini.povray_path + cmdLineOpt

like this

#print mh2povray_ini.povray_path + cmdLineOpt
