You turret local axis must be "upside down".

Select your turret bone, go to "Hierarchy" tab on the left, click "Affect Pivot only" and click "align to world".

Hope this helps

Thnks very much
and can u tell how can i make the treadfx sphares to be invisible in the game

Yes, easy too.

In the "Tools" tab, you have the W3D export tool that you should be using. (the "File/export" command do also exportation but with less parameters).

Go to the tool, select your bones (the one which must be invisible) and uncheck "Export Geometry".

The settings of each objects are kept in the gmax file.

Do you use a separate bone or the turret mesh is the bone itself ? What are your axis settings ? can you see "local" in the axis orientation combobox on the top of RenX ?

Hey, I'm having a similar problem. I took the chassis of the crusader and swapped in the barrel of the leopard (the crusader has, IMHO, one of the shittiest barrels in existence, but when I exported it as a .w3d, renamed it avcrusader.w3d, and placed it in the Art/w3d directory, I could build it and select, but it was invisible.

You should NOT, i repeat, NOT rename a file.
When exporting to *.w3d the exporting name is written into the file also.
Both file name and internal name must be the same to get the object recognized by the game. you should export it using the correct name from the beginning.
