If I am understanding your question do the following- Click on your Hierarchy tab (looks like a box with 3 smaller boxes under it with lines going to the smaller boxes) at the upper right side of your screen. Then click Affect pivot only. then ether move the pivot to where you want it manually using the move key and your mouse or you can click the center to object if that is better for you. After you get it where you want it unclick the button affect pivot only and go back to what your were doing.

You are welcome I've been using 3ds Max 6, 7, and 8 for almost 6 years now so questions like that one are easy for me. :lol:
If you realy want to learn max get a copy of the 3DS Max Bible in the version you are using it really helps. But then again I also have the books I used in college here too if I need them and other reference materials for use in Max. I'll see if I can put together some from the stuff I have here for you guys. Now finding out the correct setting to export them for this game I am still learning that myself. :roll:
