October 1, 201015 yr Hello,I am interested in making some planes for FSX. I have Gmax and the FSX Gmax Gamepack installed, but I can't find a way to save it so it opens with the FSX gamepack. If I save a project to work on it later, it saves as a Gmax scene and therefore I cannot export the file to .MDL. It keeps the "FStools" menu but I can't export to .MDL. The only way that I can export to a MDL file is if I never save the file and re-open it.Thank-you,Kevin. Thanks, Kevin L

These are the files you actually work with. When you want to try the model in FSX you must export it as .mdl file. Once it's been exported you cannot edit a .mdl file - you must use the .gmax file and then re-export the .mdl file. Gerry Howard
October 2, 201015 yr Author Hello,What I meant was- is it possible to save the Gmax file so that you can open it and export to .MDL that time?Thank-you,Kevin Thanks, Kevin L

October 5, 201015 yr Author HelloCan you please give instructions on how to do this? It doesn't work, the only file I can export to after re-opening is plasma (.p3d). Thank-you,Kevin. Thanks, Kevin L
October 5, 201015 yr If you installed according to these intructions you should be able to export to Flightsim Cloud (.CLD), and Flightsim model (.MDL) as well as plasma (.P3D).http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=Installing_FSX_GMax_gamepack Gerry Howard
