you create a model in 3ds max, it does not have to follow the sealed world rules, which is about the coolest thing ever. and then you link it to a box called frame and then export the .jms file into a models folder.
Lets say your model is in the "data\levels\test\tutorial\models" folder. Well then in tool you would type "tool model levels\test\tutorial" then it will export your model into the mirrored tag directory as a .gbxmodel tag

that is very helpful but i also have a question... say i make a scenery object... do the same rules apply to your previous statement. if so, then what do i do after i have created the .gbx file in order to get it into sapien so i can place the object and use it in game?

after making the gearbox model out of whatever the .jms was, go back into max, and texture the entire thing with 1 material named "collision-geometry". then export that and compile as collision-geometry. with the collision-geometry file and the .gbxmodel file you can have it as scenery.

ok.. that makes sense.. but another thing, once i have compiled and made those two files... i still will not have a scenery tag... wat do i do...

Make a new one in guerilla, then make those gbx models the scenery's model and collision model
