little help in GMax plzzz!!!!

I need a little help in GMax.
How do i get a model from gmax into warcraft 3!?!?!?!
I have tried to save the model with a .mdl, but it doesnt work, it has a .gmax at the end that i cant take off.

One other thing is animating.
I read a tutorial on modeling and figured some of it out, but i stil dont get animating

If someone out there can tell me how do do this stuff PLZZZZZ let me know.
I really want to start making models and already made a simple one. a lego brick

you can't just change the name to .mdl and save it, you have to use Dex Script. Its kinda hard to find i don't remember where i got it but i searched for it on google. Dex Script will extract the text you need which you can open up with notepad and then there you save it as "name".mdl. And about animations look carefully because there are lots of good tutorials out there.
