ok i have read a lot of information about the processes of building addons and islands for ofp and it seems that there is many ways of doing this so i have come up with some questions for you to, i hope help me anwser.
1) can i use 3d studio max to
a.model terrain and models(addons)
b.texture them both as well
and then export them all as .3ds and bring them both into "oxygen" to export them as a ofp file format.
or do i have to use "oxygen" ,"Vistor", and such apps
any help would be grateful
Thanks
