Hey guys biggrin.gif

I have a little model project I am looking into but I have hit a wall because I have no idea how to change a model from W3D and GMAX to 3DS to ArmA (or if it is even possible). If anyone out there can help with either information or be willing to do it for me it would be greatly appreciated and of course full credit would be given once the project is completed thumbsup.gif

You would need a 3d program to convert from gmax to 3DS. As for W3D there must be a plugin somewhere

If you want to try and send it to me, I can see if I can get it into 3ds or Arma , and if so, I will tell you how I was able to do it.

I noticed that GMAX can be used to create MFS models and was included in the MFS package.

Nigel Booth converted the Kaman SH-2G Seasprite from a MFS 2004 model, so I regard him to know how to convert a GMAX model to be ArmA usable.

Btw.: The O2 release candidate offers more features regarding import / export. I also use anima8or to make 3ds models ready for import into O2.

Cheers,
mike
