A stupid question: Could we import planes from other games? Some of the CFS3 and Thirdwire planes are very good and it could safe time....

Well since we're doing this in 3Ds Max then as long as that original file is .max then it's fine... if not u have to change it to that somehow...

I've spent countless hours trying to work out how to decompile the M3D/MLD/SMD formats, most of which apparently arent actually decompilable. The MDL or is it MLD, (can't remember right now) is kinda like a primative version of the tom-foolery that Oleg dreamt up for the in game .msh's...

Its a pity, one mearly has to spend half an hour at simviation to realise how much is sitting there... unusable...

Unless the Modelers donate their base work (not compiled) to the cause...

I've fired off a couple of emails, and am currently waiting for a reply

Now if a decompiler can take the file into a .3ds file then it still good.
