MM3D requires Lua to be built as a shared library. The default Lua build configuration does not build shared libraries. Recent versions do not even have a build rule for shared libraries. This dependency was causing problems for a number of users so I have disabled Lua support by default. While Lua support is still present, feature is no longer maintained and may be removed in a future release.

Don’t worry about it. There are no Lua scripts for MM3D. No one uses it. You don’t need Lua support. Really. MM3D requires Lua to be built as a shared library.
