Postby Leigh » Fri Apr 03, 2009 6:14 am

Ive got a few planes im working on in 3dsMAX for IL2

I was wondering how does one produce a plane from 3ds to a FSX working model

1. how do you convert the 3ds project into a .mdl files

2. are there any poly limitations with the game (overall or certain meshes)

3. are there and tuts out there.

any help would be great
