go into hmt

open your .map file you want the model from

expand the pc models tab thing

then go down to the one that you want

now look to the right..it should say sub-objects

click on the first one of those..sometimes its the 2nd or 3rd etc. etc.

and click "export model"

then go to g-max...and import it

you have to have the .obj plugin though if i remember correct

use google to look for it

http://www.dreamsandmagic.com/p_max.htm <--- The .OBJ plugin is on that page toward the bottom. Its named "OBJ2Max". The export plugin is there too, but I heard that it doesn't work properly with GMax.
