Unit Models- Help??

[Spoonfrog]

Step 1) Get a copy of 3DS Max or the free GMax....which I understand also works

I am hearing conflicting things about whether gmax can be used or not. I get the same error as knoddy when exporting with gmax (importing seems to work ok). This is what the script looks like after an export attempt:

-- Error occurred in exportButton()
-- Frame:
-- importPly: undefined
-- texname: undefined
-- fname: "C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\test.cas"
-- dynamicArray: undefined
-- gChunk2: undefined
-- fp: undefined
-- bChunk: undefined
-- staticmArray: undefined
-- header: undefined
-- tCheck: undefined
-- null: undefined
-- gChunk1: undefined

Perhaps the scripting for gmax is more limited, so it does not understand the function "fopen" or something...

well seeing as i cant get it to work i have downlaoded 3ds max and will attempt to get the export feature working with that but knowing my luck it wouldnt suprise me if i got more errors so ill prolly be back later complaining again lol cheers.

YAY it works fine i created my first unit and it looks great i was goin to post screenies but for some reason whenever i take screenies in RTW it just takes a screen shot of a black screen so oh well lol.

You can import models into gmax and edit them but you can't export them so you have to send them to someone with 3ds max to export them for you.

Heres a tip knoddy, if you press print screen and minimise, then it will have copied the screen to the clipboard so you can paste into any pic editor.

lol well i got my screenie and she looks all nice and stuff but i dont have a faintest idea how to place it in the thread if someone out there knows how(lol like every one else) please let me know so i can show my Parthia Infantry unit. lol maybe not historically accurate and sure i pinched the skin from the Eastern general but hey he goes hard and thats wots important lol
