hi everyone...
still working on my plane
today i encountered a few moe problems with gmax:

1: i can't rotate parts... it seems to be locked somehow

2: the right click menu doesn't appear

last but not least: i can't export the model. the log file reads:
Running model

Start! (D:\gmax\Flightsim\gamepacks\FlightSim\ximango)
Loading X D:\gmax\Flightsim\gamepacks\FlightSim\ximango...
Error in exporter: Mismatch between # vertex faces (500000) and # normal faces (743294) in part rudder_02.
