busseynova Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 http://www.flomonitorarm.com/images/stories/flo/downloads/files/DYN-013-001.3DS Every time I bring it in I lose the helpers and a couple of the bits aren't where they should be. It's a monitor arm, but it's not working as it should for me, works fine if I open it, but when I merge it with an existing scene it gets all screwed up... Cheers, Tom.

Cad64 Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 works fine if I open it, but when I merge it with an existing scene it gets all screwed up... Where did you get this file? Did you create it or was it sent to you? And why is it in .3ds format? Was it created in a different program? How are you "opening" it? Max can't open or merge .3ds files, only Import. I think you will probably have to re-position the parts that are not where they should be and re-create the helpers. Get the whole thing back in working order and then save it as a .max file so you can Merge it into other files in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
