GMAX Export Help

[chilla_killa]

Hello guys!
I made my first model with GMAX, made a texture on it like you see ( i know its nooby, but I don't need more for my map).
Now i have downloaded the "Dexporter" (dexscript).
I read the tutorial, i did all what there stood, but if i want to export the mdl file to mdx, there stands file error.
I dont need any animations, so i didnt made bones.
The red "skin" (look pic) lol is just a red bitmap. I don't know how to add it to the model.
I just drawed it onto the model parts, like in magos tutorial.
One time i tried it to export, the converter worked, but in the viewer and magos model editor nothing could be seen. Maybe I just make a mistake by exporting. Pls help me.

ya im having trouble with that myself! how do you do animations? Oh and I only exported a very simple model with no skins on it, but you need like 2 programs i think to be able to export it. I'll try to look them up again because i got my computer re-imaged and i dont have anything but the things i recently installed. There was a tutorial that sort-of worked for me a little... I'll find it. Maybe this is a site for one of the 2 tools... http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/resource.php?t=62882, maybe this works better though for mdl to mdx; http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/resource.php?t=62991

You might want to look for another too, Yobgul's Mdl-Mdx File Converter.

for .gmax to .mdl, try http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=Other.Detail&id=148




P.S, select everything and turn it to an editable mesh, then click the hammer button and press "run script", after that i think its "open listener".

Hope this helped xD
if these work, or do not work, tell me

1º Did you check if your meshes were converted to editable Mesh?

2º Did you select all the model at exporting it?

Ah now i understand what they meant with editable mesh thanks! +rep
How can i do this with the whole model?
But i still dont get it with the textures.

to convert to editable mesh follow the image:

For exporting materials, you need to update dexporter to NeoDex:

I would suggest you to read some gmax tutorials (which come with the program) before continuing.
