Hi all, I'm a novice in gmax, and after creating my first model I tryed to export it! I clicked export, export as a aricraft mdl, but then it gives me an error saying : "msxml4.dll could not be loaded. config files won't be readed", and after this it says: " makemdl was not found, or failed to convert the specified in c:\xx\xx\xx to a mdl file. check your system path to ensure makemdl is on it"!

so, can anybody help me?? ::)

yes, copy the following from your main FS9 folder to your Plugins folder where makemdl is located.
msxml4.dll
msxml4a.dll
msxml4r.dll
Also find makemdl.parts.xml and include in the same folder.

There should be a file called .log in the folder where you are exporting the file to.  OPen it in Notepad or a text editor and see what the errors are.  "makemdl.exe not found" is usually a generic error message that shold really read - "something's screwed up in the model and I couldn't convert it properly - check the log file and find out!"
