Controlling Philips Hue Light Bulbs using Max

Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone has a good way to control the Philips Hue light bulbs in Max 8.

I found this discussion regarding the same topic:

However, this was from 2013, and I don't know if it would still work with Max 8.

I would love to learn how to make this happen if anyone has any success with this.

Thank you very much in advance.
