BlinkBoy	hehe read title, newbs should dl it to learn of setting cameras,lights and using skin modifier + of course animations (in linear, none smoothy anims). It is saved in max 6 .max so maybe some ppl with other max have problems. EDIT= UPDATED!! added gmax format and mdx format to the zip file. here is an image of the model a bout! made in only 12mins using plane and box modelling:

updated you can now dl the mdx. and gmax format but the gmax 1 isn't correct since it comes from a 3ds. import.

Whoa, a model animated in 3dsmax6 you say?...Cool

This whole business of needing older versions of Max for art tools has really been a huge thorn in the side.

I'll be taking a carefull look at this.

Do you think we'll ever be able to import/export complex 'non-linear'/skeletal type animations from Max6? I'm thrilled with the progress here, but I've got some nifty things I'd like to get in-game if this is a possibility. Please keep this up.
