What is Gmax ?

[Guest]

I understand it is for designing aircraft for FS2002 but, apart from having the software, exactly what material do I need to do begin such a procedure. I would like to do some of the older Icelandair aircrafts, I have all the models for these planes out of FS98,FS2000 and 2002, can I use them and if so how do I use them. Can I paint with Gmax. Is the a website covering this issue?Regard

Arni,Gmax is a scaled down version of 3d Studio Max, a 3d modeling program. It is used to create 3d models and scenes. When used properly you can create aircraft and scenery items for FS2002. It does have a very steep learning curve. It is NOT a paint program.You can find many posts reguarding Gmax in this and many other forums around the web. So read... read... read... and experiment.
