    Convert GMAX source file into an FSDS source file

    Is this at all possible?
    If so how can I go about doing it?
    I know FSDS pretty well but I am a zero on GMAX.
    Thank you all.

    Sid,

    from what I remember it's possible using DXF converter, but you loose texture mapping and all animations, and all LOD models end up as one. I may be remembering wrong or maybe new ways have come out of the woodwork over time.

    If you do find a way, I'd be interested in knowing too.

    Hi,

    Model Converter X (MCX) by Arno at FSDeveloper should be able to do this.

    Best regards,

    MCX only works the other way around. ie. From FSDS to 3DS/Gmax. Unfortunately.
    Arno any chance?
