So confusing this gmax...

So i'm exporting my gmax terrian to leveledit. I make sure is w3D and then click the 'renegade terrian' option.

But it dosen't appear when i try to open it. What do I do? (I know about renhelp.co.uk, IMO I think that site is crap, but it does teach the basics, barely.)

Anyway, things to check when exporting buildings.

1. Make sure your buildings are about like this in gmax. The closer the building is to the center of gmax, the closer they will be to the corner of the map. (Starting Corner)

2. Make sure you dont rename the .w3d after export. I normally wouldnt think people would, but i see it all the time. On export the w3d uses the export name internally.

3. Try putting a bulding in right in the center of gmax. That way right when you load the buildings preset, a building will be right under you.

EDIT: This site is like the upper backbone, and renhelp is the lower. Very essential to the community.

Lmfao

I'm talking about just terrian, which I have just put a 'plane' with so junk on it (cylinders, cones etc). I haven't gotten to doing buildings yet. Haa.. Crying or Very Sad

Same thing apply?

Also, how can I rotate the junk? ex. a hollow tube that units can walk through

Easy, select the rotate tool at the top, then select the axis to rotate it on.

EDIT: just read my tut on there, it has all of that information on buildings.
