Modeling Question!!!!!!!!
Sorry for the double post but I figured this might be important,okay eh...snipe,the max script in the link above does indeed contain the .obj plugin,however I have run into a new issue which somebody might know how to fix,I go to the C drive,program files,blah microsoft blah games blah and so on and I open every folder,and not a one do I see a file of a model or something to open.
This is because they are packed or compiled into a .MAP file, so you need a program to extract that, and the common program to do this (assuming it is for halo PC) is to use HMT. If it is for Halo CE, you would open the tags with JMS importer, set up nodes and bones, export and put into a custom map.

To install the scripts, just follow these simple steps:
(1) Copy the MAXScript into your gmax\scripts\startup directory.
For example, if you have installed gmax in c:\gmax then copy the script
into c:\gmax\scripts\startup
(2) Run/Restart gmax
(3) Go to the utilities tab (the one with the hammer icon) and click on the
MAXScript button
(4) Find the 'Utilities' drop down list and you should see the name of your
newly installed script (eg. 3DS Import). Select the script and you should
see a new rollout appear above or below the MAXScript rollout. The script is
now ready for use.
Sorry to bring this thread back up, but I'm not sure what to do. I have the object importer in the right spot, I have the drop down menu under Utilities saying "Wavefront OBJ Importer" ... but not what?
Do I have to do anything else besides selecting it in the drop down list?
What does it mean by a rollout?
Here's where I am stuck at:
