I don't know where to put this topic, so I put it here.

I've just purchased 3ds Max so as to better improve my modeling ability.

however it's considerably different then renx/gmax and I do not know how to do some things...

first of all, how the hell do I put a texture onto a model in this thing?! the material editor is WAY different then renx/gmax.

second, how do I bind a model to bones, the wwskin spacewarp isn't there.

last of all, how do I access the w3d tools place thingy... *the thing where you can tell an object to be like 2-sided, or aabox for bounding boxes. cam-orient... that stuff*

I still do not know what you mean, is it in the BFME2 SDK?

uhhhg... the plugin just has the w3d exporter right? can I still add the W3D tools utility, the renx texture applier thingy, and the wwskin right? they show them used in the SDK...

If so, then I need to know how to install them, because clearly I'm doing it wrong.
