I'd personally go for the Leduc, but it's always a personal preference.

Don't get bent out of shape about no response: just makes everyone not want to respond even more. Wink

Well done. Smiley

Note that it's the Leduc RL-21, not 02. That explains why you couldn't find it. There were two aircraft designers named Rene Leduc. The more famous one designed the first aircraft to fly solely propelled by a ramjet engine. http://www.airbornegrafix.com/HistoricAircraft/ThingsWings/Leduc.htm

Are the images in JPG form or BMP?  They need to be in BMP format so Gmax can use them.

As for the vertices, Customize --> Customize User Interface --> Colors (tab) --> Elements --> Geometry -->Vertex Ticks.

See if you can play with that to get it to work.  If not, check out a couple of other forums.  Someone else may understand this more than I.

well I cant find another aircraft, nor the engine maker (Farina) which is Italian for flour


oh and i forgot to add, soon after i posted those pics i thought "I should save this incase my computer (fuzzs out)"

when i clicked the gmax tab on the bottom of the screen, that caused the computer to crash Cry

Trust me when I say that we have all been there at one point or another.  We each find our own way around the Gmax Boogeybit.  Mine is to save a different copy after I change something on the model that would be irreparable or take an inordinately long amount of time to fix.  I label them with the suffix 01, 02, etc.  That way, if I find that a certain direction I have been working is fouled, I can always go back a few steps and go another route.
