It's much easier to create buildings props and other custom content in Sketchup Pro than in gmax only takes you about an hour or less!
After you create your work in sketchup pro here are the steps:
1. Go to "File" then "Export"
2. Select "3d model" then go to the directory you want to save your work
3. Create your new file name it as you like
4. Click export then close Sketchup Pro.
5. Open the BAT then wait for gmax to load.
6. When gmax loads go to File.
7. Click "Import"
8. Go to the folder where you saved the 3ds model then click the file of your work (default is only 3ds and prj files appears)
9. When your work appears sometimes you don't like the size or not attached together (that's the only problem whe working with sketchup pro actual size and sometimes not attached with each other)
10. If parts of your work are not attached, go to "Modify", then "Attach", then click to the parts you are attaching
11. If the size too small go to "Motion" then select scale under the PRS Parameters then under the key info you can scale your work in X Y and Z.
12. Click "Utilities" button then BAT.
