Need help extracting model

I was wondering, can anyone extract the Startracker to Gmax format for me? I'm going to use the model to create a new series of civilian ships (Exploration, Miner, Figther, Etc. Etc.) To do the magnificent CTE ships justice.

i've never done it, i expect you could do it with hardCMP though..

in order to extract models from FL you need milkshape, CMP importer, CMP Exporter (incase your looking to put them back into FL), UTF for Mat file editing.

From Milkshape you can export to tons of different formats.

ah, okay.

Be warned, however- many of the FL ship models do not, and probably will never, import correctly- DA used a weird file format for some of their stuff that they apparantly made early on, which turns into polygonal mush if imported with the current Plugins.

...But could anybody with milkshape be so kind that they will extract it to milkshape and then on to Gmax? Please?

... and you can't do this yourself because... ?

...Because I don't have milkshape, can't pay for it and i don't want to spend my 30 days now, rather when i get better at modeling. Please?
