Guest	did you read the tut by arcuirve(god i hope its spelled right) you have to use max script not just import. I cant find the link, but maybe another person can show you to it.

"not MDX file":
An mdx file begins with "MDLX". If it doesn't begin with this then it hasn't been extracted properly.

KMK	Whip_Boy: Can't export from gmax. Sorry, out of my control. Calzone: You need to select MDX Import/Export from the drop down menu and then a rollout will appear below the maxscript area, not a window.
