Default Problems exporting!!

Myself and my partner are currently converting our FSDSv3 models over to FSXGmax and we are using AC3D to import and convert .obj files to .3ds files to retain the texture mapping and then import into Gmax. One ship converted with all of the textures intact. The second model comes through with only one or two. We've read the readme file for parts to only have one texture in order for AC3D to put it together correctly. If you join two parts in FSDS would that create the problem we are having now?

Question Re: Problems exporting!!

I have two consistant problems exporting to 3ds with textures.

1) some programs still require the use of no more than 8 characters for the texture filename.

2) The texture should be in the same directory as the 3ds model.

Good luck.
