OK. Can u enclose a picture of tank in Obj Editor? May be, u need to apply reset x-form in 3d max.
ps did u align to the world a pivots? Also, u can play vs "Flip V Channel".

s_root it's in the center of the model, but the shadow is very strange...

It looks more like a combination of a faulty xform and a few wrong pivots.
So do like this step by step if you dont wanna try it out yourself:
1. Unlink all parents so all parts is seperate. 2. Apply Reset xform on exactly ALL parts including the dummys. 3. Select ALL parts and go to hierarchy tab, click Affect pivot only. 4. Click Center to object. 5. Click Align to world.
After that you need to fix all other pivots manually for hatches and proably turret and a few dummy sights. Parent all parts together again and try to export and look in game.
And also, Make Y up is for the model to change axis alignments when exporting, So if you check Make Y up you need to rotate your model accordingly 90 degrees. Its only for your conveniance so you dont have to rotate your model everytime you are going to export it. If you look at your first picture just rotate your model 90 degrees "forward" with make y up checked and you should be alright =)

Great work! Looking forward to seeing the Crusader and other 'cruiser' tanks!
(If you don't mind my saying, the turret needs to be set further in front. It's a feature of tanks with that type of suspension)

Kyth you are right, turret isn't in the right place and I can solve this easily but at the moment I have two more difficult problems in the right side of the tank

I'd guess it's something to do with 'Reset X-Forms' again,

It is the configuration file in \tech_cfg folder, after many attempts it works fine with the caterpillars of the T-26

I find my favorite medium in the Notebook section at your local grocery store. Lockie, Donken, and a few other chosen individuals possess the elusive talent of working on a computer
