[RESOLVED] GMAX to 3DS Max suggestions

Post by corinoco »

Hi All,

I'm new to Prepar3d; I'm here because I like building aircraft.

I recently found an old hard drive with some old files from 2004 - yes, the stone age - of some GMAX aircraft I built way back when there was only one sim.

I still have the GMAX files, but I need some way to convert them to 3DS Max.

Is there any way to get a GMAX file with the textures and animations into a modern product?

Here's some pics of my two projects: The Rutan Boomerang - which was fully finished, and the Avtek400 which was only partially complete (only ambient textures, no gauges, panel or .air file)

And a quick Google answered my own question. My the world of building aircraft has changed a bit since, er, 2004! ModelConverterX, wow. Yep that did the trick, even exports all the animations and textures. Nice!
