DTS Exporter Maya PLE 8.5 Install Problems

I posted this in the DTS modelling forum as well, but this forum's a bit more active.
I'm attempting to install the DTS exporter in the Personal Learning Edition of Maya 8.5 on windows XP. I've got the zip file with files for all versions of maya, and I've got dtsUtility.mel in MyDocuments\maya\scripts and maya2dtsexporter.mll in C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya 8.5 Personal Learning Edition\bin\plug-ins
I ran the dtsUtility.mel script in the maya console, but when I go into the plugin manager and try to click the "loaded" and "Auto Load" boxes(both of which are unchecked when I load up maya) I get the error message "// Error: The specified procedure could not be found."
Did I do something wrong? Does the exporter not work with the PLE version of Maya or something?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

EDIT:
I just thought I would note that it is PLE that doesn't work with the exporters by design, not that the exporters do not work with PLE. That was one of the PLE workflow drawbacks unless you were using Unreal 2/2.5 which had native PLE exporters through a handshake agreement for modding purposes.

Yes. The exporters will not work with PLE.EDIT:
