should get you started. you might also want to check out the forums for some tutorials & tips.

 

I'm pretty sure it's the 3dsmax exporter which also works with several versions of Gmax. Although you may have some limited functionallity here and there.

I also have a GMAX Software Bundle that includes everything you need regarding gmax as well as install documentation.
