What to do ? Can 3ds Max ?

I'm having trouble getting anything to dts export with 3ds max 7 :(
Is this complex ? Or am I missing somthing ?

Milkshape seems to be working good for now :)
Easy to work with :)

But I'm new, where are good sources of models to play around with for milkshape ?

Ha, Ha, Ha... Have you seen that stuff on milkshape3D.com ? Break out the finger paints !
I think I'd be better off using construction paper and paste with stop motion animation...
Growl.....

Ha.. Ha.. Ha.. I respect people working hard as they do, but it's still funny... :)

Should I just use dxf polly and custom texture map ?

There's mega TON's of dxf models that work with 3ds max !

But exporting is always to diffucult I think with max.

Should I just can it ? I'm always trying to figure it out ? I want to work on a game
and art, not play with exporting.

Any advice ?

Thanks,
