Exporting in gmax or 3dsmax? Try to wait BAT is boring even if your metro dome has many vertex/polys!! It'snt freeze it's exporting only first scene then 2

Its a forum glitch. If you press the reply button more than once when creating a new topic it will make two or more of them sometimes.

@azman1974 It is normal for the BAT to freeze with something as large as the Metro Dome. The exporting prosces with large buildings will take alot of time. My newsest BAT took about 9 hours to export. 

Just wait and be paitent. I would suggest pressing the export button and leaving the computer to export overnight. It should be done the next morning. If not the model is too big for your computer to handle. If thats the case then you will have to send it to someone else to render.

The export time depends of number of vertex/how textures and your computer!

To complete what was already said, here after, an example of export time for a Gmax bat of nearly 1.500.000 polygons...!

So... be patient, and welcome to Simtropolis Bat community

A little off topic, but do you mean the Metrodome in Minneapolis? Because if you would upload that, I think I might poop my pants .
