For all you aircraft developers out there using 3ds Max for modeling, what is the largest .x file that can be converted by MakeMDL? 
-My S-92 is sits right now around 32000 polys with the interior and exterior togther.  The .x file is around 12 mb. 
-For some reason MakeMDL wont export the file.  I know that I have made larger files before and they have worked. 
-What is the largest that yall have got to convert to .mdl and how did you do it?  Thanks for all the help!

This is the best help I can give to you,  I haven't started playing with 3ds, so I don't know it's limitations etc.
