Hmmm... I'm sure this infos on the post somewhere, I musta collected it. Let me have a look about the old archives, see what I can find...

There's a plugin for 3DStudioMax - version 3 I believe - though somone upgraded it for v5. I don't know of any plugins for gmax though. Yes, gmax and 3DSMax are related, but not in a useful way - the plugins and export formats are very different.
