how do you view an assembled model and be able to skin it?

Finish a new model/mesh? Got something you're working on? Finish a new map? Here's the place to post it for feedback and whatnot.

interactive 3D renderer initialization failed error

The Interactive 3D Renderer Initialization failed error occurs when the wrong video driver is selected prior to running gmax.

)-----switching your video driver-----(


On your desktop, right click on the gmax icon. On the menu that appears, select properties.

On the shortcut tab, add a -h after the gmax.exe, ;like: C:\gmax\gmax.exe -h

Now when you start gmax, you will be prompted again to change your display driver. you may now select the correct driver. If you do not know which driver to select, we recommend HEIDI: Software Z Buffer.

After you have successfully changed your video driver and the program launches, remove the -h from the target line so that you will not be prompted for the video driver selection any more.

this was taken from HERE


I find it very annoying when people give a nasty replys to when people are in need of help.
