heh...
im new to the modeling thing to.
still working on my first project.
here what you do to get your aircraft into the sim.
1. make your aircraft
2. export that aircraft as a 3ds file using the script found on this thread.
now you will have 2 files...your 3ds file and a sup file.
3. edit the sup file to make sure the parts naming and hierarchy are correct.
4. now run the 3ds to kex converter found here
http://knifeedge.com/KEmax/downloads.php
( EDIT : make sure you down load the right file.....download the 2nd one down.
the first one marked as beta is for the G4
)
this is a cmd line based program...meaning you have to run it from the dos window.
a search on the forums here should point you in the right direction on how to run it
if you have everything set up right.
the 3ds to kex converter will make a new file....with the .kex extention.
4. startup your G3.5 under simulation go down to import.
then import kex......find your file and hit open.
if everything was set up correctly you will have your aircraft in the sim.
go to the aircraft tab ...select new aircraft...find the one you just imported.
hit open and bingo...
then you have the joy of setting up the physics model....but that a whole other can of worms.
hope this helps....have fun
