I got the plugin for 3ds max 6 to work for 3ds max 8 but i need to know what this error means i try to export the file as a .jms file but it says there were no geometries to export then another window pops up after i click ok and it says export module failure so i was wondering how to make that error go away? Thanks alot Dannyg333

did u link the skybox to frame

thanks ill get back to you and let you know if that worked

yaa that worked thanks alot i finally can make my map thanks

i was making my level and i saved and quit and then when i triied to get in it i couldn't becouse it had missing file i tried reinstalling it that didn't help so what if i download it again will that help?

my problem is similar, except, I have tried linking everything to the reference frame... but I won't let me link the skybox to the frame... or at least it does not appear to have linked. When I selet the frame, it selects my models on the map as well, but the skybox is completely separate, and I keep clicking to link it, but it just won't. Plz, I've been working on this same problem for like 13 hours today, somebody plz help me!

i apologize in advance for the double post, but I fixed it, I just had to delete the models on my map, and the frame, then re-import the models, and recreate the frame, then re link them, and whala, it is now exported correctly! Thank you in advance for those who were gonna help, and again I am sorry for the double post!

I have the blitzkrieg dll files for max 5, but I don't know what to do with them in order to be able to save my map as a .jms file. If it makes a difference, I have the 3DS max 8, and it is the trial version. Plz help me with this, I'm getting desperate.

yikes....2 month bump....

had you looked farther down on the first page of this board, you would have found a thread where someone posted the following link

ok, i got the right blitzkrieg now, but when i try to put it in SYSTEM32, it says "it is being used by another person or program, please close that program and try again", so how do i work that out?

ok, sorry 'bout that, i figured out that last program glitch, but now when i save as a jms file it says there is no geometry to export, whats that about?
btw, i would like to appologize for these questions, this is my firt map modding

once again i figured that problem out, and i need to know how do u link skybox to the frame?

In it, kirk walks you through everything you need to do to make a simple map

I now have all of my problems resolved, but now I have an error when I try to export my map as a .jms file. When I try to export the file, it says that an error has occured and the program must shut down. I can't figure out what to do, even after I searched the Halomods forums several times to try and fix it. Anyone kno what to do?
