So is 3dsMax the only program to use for making models for the v12 engine? I hear it is mucho expensiavo. Where can I buy it from?

oh.. then you havn't purchaused the SDK..else you would have access.

In that case.. uhm dunno... can't help you... dunno if I can give you the link... don't want to get into trouble... sorry...

There are some reasons why the V12 Forums are not public....

It is a Milkshape exporter plugin I'm doing in my spare time. It is not finished yet, but it can export static shapes already.

It will be available as open-source in a few days, so it will be available even if you don't have a license (it may be useful to mod the future demo, or even Tribes 2). However, I posted it in the private SDK forums first for review, because I wanted to be sure that it is not violating some point of the SDK license (even when it does not use V12 code).

Excellent, please let us know when it is done.

P.S. No that is not my real name. That is my in-game name.
