I'm guessing you're using gmax. Depending on who you talk to, exporting using gmax is either:
-completely impossible
-theoretically possible but no tool has yet been created to do it
-"of course it's possible and I did it twice yesterday, but I won't provide you with any info and will ignore all subsequent posts"


Personally, I know of no way to do it. If somebody does, please reespond. Otherwise your best bet would be to get milkshape or 3dmax.
