Everytime when i try to load a Vehicle W3D in 3Ds Max 8 then the vehicle will look like this:

index.php?t=getfile&id=8013&private=0

Every part of the Vehicle are duplicated, why is that? or is just something wrong? is there a way to "fix" that?

That's the LOD models, they are supposed to be there.

In case you didn't know, LOD is for "Level of Detail" which alternates the model between the different lower-poly models of the same vehicle depending on how far you are from the vehicle in order to improve performance. However, Renegade is so old now that they really aren't necessary unless the model uses a lot of polygons.

By the way with lods my models change not then they are far but when they're close how do i change that?

I don't know, I believe it's coded into Renegade and difficult if not impossible to change. You could try making the 0 and 1 LOD identical, that might help.
