Laddies and gentlemen...

a) How do you PROPERLY import a vehicle into 3DS MAX

-Chop some pieces off, texture the rest-

b) How do you PROPERLY export the vehicle out of 3DS MAX

Basically, instead of making some of the Warthog's pieces use an invisible shader to hide a piece of it whilst still have the collision of the hidden object- I want to chop some things off of the hog (and maybe add a few... Funny objects...) and leave its texture, animation and physics intact- as well as update it's collision to work obviously.
