Chapter 1 ✦ gmax — The Possibilities
Figure 1-5: The Combat Flight Simulator game pack is similar in most respects to
the Flight Simulator game pack.
Train Simulator
Answering the call of Trainz, Microsoft released its Train Simulator game. Train
Simulator, like Flight Simulator, enables you to export gmax models into a format
the game engine can use, as shown in Figure 1-6.
Because of the extensive coverage of Trainz, this book does not cover Train
Simulator, but the Train Simulator game pack is different from Trainz and is fairly
similar to Flight Simulator.
And more to come
In addition to these games, several more games have been announced to appear
during 2003 with gmax support, including the following:
✦ Microsoft’s Impossible Creatures
✦ Microid’s Tennis Master Series
✦ Unreal Tournament 2003
