Here is a simple thing I havent learned yet.

I made a chopper (as part of the scene, not functional), I want this choppers rotar blades to spin very slowly, like the wind is blowing. Can someone tell me how (in gmax) to make an object spin slowly on the Z axis?

You'd have to export it as a HAM and rotate the blades. Then you'll use the animation in the Commando editor.

"mn_deafwaspheli.mn_deafwaspheli" for the animation box.

Heirachal Animation Model=ham, just a guess but makes sense.

Ask Aircraftkiller...on Glacier I noticed the wrecked cargo plane, the propeller blades slowly swing back and forth in the wind...very cool effect.

ModelName == mn_deafwaspheli.w3d

Export in RenX as Heirarchy Animated Model (HAM)

With X number amount of frames with keys. So if you animated 10 frames then you could set your frame end to 10.

In Commando you enter in the animation box:

ModelName(minus .w3d tag).ModelName(minus .w3d tag)

So in this example: mn_deafwaspheli.mn_deafwaspheli

Does that help?
