Hello everybody,

I have the possibility to buy 3ds max 9 for a reduced price. However, the fact that version 9 doesn't cooperate with the official Firaxis MaxTools is a major turn-off ...

But fortunately the Niftools are also availabe for version 9. Has anyone enough experience with those tools as to tell me if they really work well with Civ IV? I mean, I had a look at the exporter, and it looks pretty similiar to the official plugin (or even better, for there is also an import plugin included).

Is that impression correct, or is there anything that you can't do with the niftools but which could be done with the official Firaxis MaxTools?

Thanks for your help!
