So I installed everything it looks like, but I can't do the gmax registration. I follow the link and it doesn't take me to the link but to something entirely different. This, with this goofy old man that looks like a beggar, a refugee, or like he might simply have COVID-19...maybe all three.

I signed up. So, not sure where to go form here. Software on computer.

Hi Gergiev, I regist GMAX from here, before that, I remember that you need to register an account of Join TurboSquid. After that, you will see a webpage which says 'Thank you for registering, Your registered user indentification code for gmax is…', there you will got that. I just tried it and it still worked, Hope it helps.

Best Regards,

-- Raymond

Indeed, Autodesk have long since moved on from supporting gMax, all that is handled at TurboSquid's site now.

Head over to my Lot and Mod Shack to keep abreast of my latest developments.

Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

New to the NAM? Check out my tutorials on YouTube. Latest upload: How to: RHW - MHO Roundabout Interchanges. (Nov 25).

p.s. - I'm MGB over on SC4D and a member of the NAM team.
