Lets see if anyone can tell what it is, but I highly doubt it since its fairly new and there is literally no detail right now.
If anyone wants to help/has experience in gmax/3ds with texturing send me a message.

Wow, glad to see your back into it Jordan. Its a great feeling seeing something you work on actually in the sim. And I'm sorry.
If you can see the model in the sim then it has exported just fine.
Perhpas an Embraer Phenom 300?

Its actually going to be a Hawker 4000.
And I ask how to export because I exported as a Fs9 model and I want to make it a FSX native model...

Looks nice, but you might want to take care of the dark edges on the wing. They're usualy caused by the wing having a very proeminent edge separating the bottom wing from the top wing. That's solved with using prevent indirect smoothing and autosmooth on the smooth modifier.

I still need to cut out the flap parts and such, hopefully I can do that soon and fix it.

do you know how to cut Jordan and Mitch?
I mean to open the cockpit and landing gears etc..
anything just let me know
Yeah, I'm going to need a lot of help with that, and probably the animating too. (I can model just not animate yet)

And I ask how to export because I exported as a Fs9 model and I want to make it a FSX native model... which I don't quite know how to do.
In that case, you will need to use the FSX supplied Gmax within the SDK. Then just export as an .mdl and it will give you a bunch of options to choose such as DDS textures or BMP textures. If all goes well and no problems occur during the export process it should be a native FSX model, check in FSX if the model has self-shadowing.
BTW, looking good. 8-)

I've tried to install the FSX gmax but it doesn't like me and will only give me the FS9 options. I have no idea on how to fix it. Anyone have an idea or just wants to send me theirs? :)

Good news: It's now FSX native!
Bad news: Smoothing issue...
