Make sure you click chimpv54gmax (or something like that).

make sure it is a .ms. Then, it will export the .jms. To save it, click the grablistener that came with the chimp download. That will open up a command prompt window and allow you to save it.

k open up gmax
go to maxscript in main menu
click on run script
open up chimp
now in the tool menu, click on the little thing that looks like a hammer
click on maxscript then click on run script and open up chimp

now where it says utilities, click on dropdown and click on chimp
a menu should open up then export halo structure :D

don't forget to frame and link your gun
