Do you mean the one that has "Objects, Shapes, Compounds" etc on it?  Just press 2 when you open up Gmax.  It'll pop right up.

it's almost done! all i need is to finish the wings and make a cockpit... but the cockpit will be the hard part. all i need is to figure out how to make transparencys in gmax... and i need a painter and air file maker (no idea how to make one), plus a panel. what program makes panels for 2k2/2k4?

Well, if either of the other two work, open them and start off from where they are.  That's about all I can tell you.

Remember, Gmax is a finicky system.  If you don't have everything like it wants it, it will f@$k you.  That's why I use backups.
