I remember you saying something about fixing smoothing by attaching and exporting and importing and detaching.. can I have the idiot's guide to doing this in Max?

Yeah, it's easy to fix. I will make a little graphic tutorial and post it tonight.

OK, here it is. This is how I solve my smoothing problems in Max. This is not necessarily the easiest way or even THE way to do it. This is simply how I do it....

Forgot to say... do the same thing to the flaps to get rid of that smoothing around the fat edge.

Thanks for taking all the time to do this JT, it really helps me a LOT.

When do I import and export?

I got ONE texture problem too:

The wing is somehow wrong shaded as you can see. But only the right Wing - that appears after I unified all normals of the whole model. JT - do you think your procedure could help me ? Or should I rebuild the wrong shaded faces ?

TS,

I would do the export/import/export thing after following the steps above.

Laika,

I am fairly certain that this would fix your wing problems, but it's hard for me to see exactly what's going on from your screenshot. If the problem is with just the right wing, though, why not just get rid of it and build it by mirroring the left wing.
If you like, send me your wings in OBJ format (exported out of OPS) and I will tell you what's going on with them.
