What is the best program to use to edit a w3d file? I've tryed using w3d viewer, but it always crashes before I have a chance to learn how to use it.

I can't find how to import the w3d file into gmax. I downloaded the importer and install it into the proper directory, but when I open renx I can't find the import button. Where the hell is it? (I'm sorry if this sounds stupid, but I've looked all over renx for it.)

the w3d importer is a max script, leubei's renhelp site has one in its downloads section.

to run it, click the "utilities" tab (lookes like a hammer) then click the "max script" button. select the "w3d->gmax" script from the dropdown menu and click "import" from the new rollout for the script.

OK, I clicked the hammer, then maxcript, and in that area I see open listener, new script, open script, run script, utilities drop down (empty), and close. Where is the w3d->gmax script?
