Another Newbie :)



Hi everyone,

Am newbie too, but using Max 5 from swap meet. Fairly proficient @ vector
programs such as Illustrator, & basically learning by trial & error. (Not
really into books or tutorials but as with any powerful program 3D Max is a
beast! :)
Specific questions easier for me then.

Want 2 import/export *.nif files for "Oblivion" game. Perhaps problem is
with Beth's CS? Their forums & wiki idea *not* very helpful-- too much
traffic & questions appear to get lost in the chaos! (PDF file too time
consuming for them?)

My question then:

Can I get help here, or can anyone recommend Use-net group for these kinds
of "newb" questions?

Web based boards seem somewhat busier than remember them being after 1 year
hiatus from the net.

Am guessing I need to learn what boxes to select or not select when
exporting the mesh I've either made as a test (a cube!) or modified from
imported *.nif.

MsgBox in CS = "Load Error: not a nif file." : 0 !

Using "max-5-plugins-0.2.10" to import/export. PS7 for textures.

thx
