Gmax question

[Randomdays]

Posted this in my request topic, but hoping it may get more imput here

I've got Gmax setup okay, imported the nwmax scripts to be able to import/export NWN meshes with, but looking for a good way to get the meshes into blender. The obj scripts look a little complicated to work with - are there any other scripts that will export to something that blender can handle? I tried tempest, but it seems like it won't install without have Q3 installed.

I also tried going the direct route with the neverblender scripts with blender, but they errored out without converting


Thanks in advance for any help

Edit - may have found a solution allready. Niftools has a nif plugin for max. I'll try that - if it works, I could go right from gmax to nif.
