I am working on a weapon and I have problems exporting it correctly from Gmax. When I export it, it wants to put it in P3D format, no other. I put it in that format, but changed the document to .jms after it was exported. Here is what I got in Tool:

###Ma5k
###ERROR model file has wrong version number
###ERROR failed to import geometry Ma5k.jms

Do I need a .jms exporter for Gmax?

I have a serious problem now, don't I?

I have the same problem, I renamed my thing "sniper", and I still get:

(or something close to his problem)

i probaly know why. in the material editor, you are not supposed to make it a standard material, its supposed to be a multi/sub object. then put the textures there. and and give it a material ID in teh editable mesh function. and add the textures to teh same ID #
