Never had that problem, but Ill try and guess at some things to check. 3DS max and GMAX have different export s. I assume youre using the correct one? You have the Listener Window open when exporting? Mabye this is on Vista - I havent checked to see if it works on Vista. Remember also that GMAx does not allow you to save the exported file, but there is a program called GMAX listener grabber that will capture the text in the Listener.

That program is essential. Otherwise you have to copy/paste the whole thing, which can take forever and is very errorprone.

Very well done! But you really should use the 2002LC. Lighting is so much better.

Ya I did that but now I have to re-texture it without texture wrap. Since I tiled alot of the structures tectures the 2002 LC settings taht I followed does not support that.

Its one structure and I didnt really look at the polys....its fairly high, but doesnt cause any lag in game. I however did change back to 3ds Max after gmax gave me a headache, just had to find the discs for it.

Much better choice using 3ds. If you are using 3ds, give a yell, will help out.
