Now at this point SimV Forums should dedicate a page specificly for :Jakes's Gmax problems! I assure you I will keep that one alive!  Smiley

My problem this time: When I export my model I get this error message. I've had it before, and I uninstall Gmax completely and delete all leftover files, and reinstall, as well as the makemdl sdk  ect.
What causes the problem? one moment it works fine, then it just happen suddenly. even restart dont help. I also see that the name.x and name.interior.x is in the destination folder after i got the error. but even try running Makemdl sdk dont help   Sad

this is the path I export to: C:\gmax\gamepacks\fs2004\Jbizz200\model

even trying another path dont help....eish!

Edited:
It have something to do with the model itself - i've exported two other test models successful, but not this one  Sad

ANother thing to consider.  When you get an error, you should also get an error log (mymodel.log, located in the same folder where you're (trying) to export to.

That's a simple text file and will usually be reasonably accurate in telling you what the error is.  Sometimes the "can't find makemdl.exe"  is the last thing really causing the error.
