People say dont use gmax because there arent plugins and you cant open halo objects with it, yet it is in the description of this forum. Then people say that gmax sucks and milkshape is the better decision. Then they say that milkshape is garbage and gmax is alot better than milkshape!!!! WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11uno!111!!!!uno!!!11!

gmax is a much more powerful software, alot of people have problems imporing and exporting objs, so alot of people dont use it, milkshape is an all around bad program, from many different ways, but its simplicity and easy stable obj importer and exporter makes it very popular, at the moment without any new models being able to be put into halo, this program works, not great but it works, milkshape can get the job done but its just more difficult to do, gmax ur able to select what u want easier, but people make some good things with milkshape, as a 3d max user it sickens me to have to use milkshape but I get it done still, so my advise to u is not ask us what is better because again we will only give u our oppinion, both are free (at least a trial anyway) so download them both, and make a project with both of them and see which one u enjoy more, which one is easier, which if any u get problems with, the only way to be sure is to try it yourself and make your own oppinion.

Beastman, I have one question. IS THERE A DAMN EXPORTER FOR GMAX?

I have the same question, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr >=|

i don't know about gmax, but there sure is one for 3dsmax

there is one for 3d max, i dont know anyone that has it working for objs, for gmax i know there is but becuase i dont use it im not sure where to find it, ive seen it posted multiple times on the forums, but theres one guy on the forums thats been working on different scripts for gmax so one can render and such, most likly he would be the one to ask, because im a 3d max user theres no point in having gmax on my comp, sorry that i cant help u more

I've got the obj plugins for 3dsmax6... if anyone wants them?

well i wouldn't mind getting a plugin for 3dsmax but i would prefer one for gmax unless somebody can give me or something for 3ds then that would be good.
