About 3ds max [Questions]

[Zaphry]

Started making custom weapons again when game time expired.
Moved from maya 8.5 to 3ds max and things are little bit different so i am asking few questions from it.

1. How do I attach parts to each other in 3ds max? like attach handle into blade part.
- So when doing that it would be 1 whole model.. not 2 separate models.

2. How will i skin or texture it?

Would be glad to get fast answer

1: Right click on model > turn model into a mesh>right click again > and then attach option will be available

2: Via uvw mapping, don't know if maya had that option or however you textured it.
