Hi Ampere, so, AC3D (our favorite file extension fopr creating wonderful things for FG...), is a "Y" up program, but Flight Gear (the simulator...), is a "Z" up world?
I have used 3dsmax for around 3 years off and on, with Maya being my most used program (since Im a student learning it....), with GMax being a close 2nd out of the 3. Problem is FG onlay takes .ac files and GMax can only xport to .mdl (with the MSFS 2004 plugin..), which makes it harder as I have these programs on my system. At the end of the day I might have to "bite the bullet" and purchase AC3D jsut to crete .ac files to use in FG. As for the link, I have meet the developers in person (I used to work retail and they said what they did for a job, I mentioned what I was studying and they gave me the evaluation software on cd...), good stuff, a small leraning curve involved but very powerful.
