First get gmax and the Tempest pack
After you make your model in gmax export it as an .md3 with the Tempest pack.
Open the .md3 with LithUnwrap which you can get for free here
Export it as a .cob and you're all set.  
I hope this is of use to someone.:thepimp:

[color=66ff00]Have you tested this thoroughly? I also used the same method a while back to convert and got mesh errors, flipped polys, and the like.

nope:blah:

[color=66ff00]Bear in mind that I was doing this a month or two ago, it's very possible that they've worked out the bugs by now

It would just be a bit of a pain if you'd built an excellent model, converted it and then find out that TS doesn't like it for some reason.

I just tested it with a cube and it worked fine
textures were weird in truespace at first but i got them fixed and it looked fine in PCS and modelview.

I've been doing this for awhile, but using Deep Exploration in place of Lith. Works well about 90% of the time, but it absolutely must be converted to Editable mesh before you export,, or it goes all shardy and horrible.
