I'll post the answers as I find them. Mainly a useful outline readily available to name objects and groups with 3DS Max 4 and the pof converter. I am using Rhino 3 for my primary modeler. Exporting as dxf R12 seems to work well enough. Max imports by layer name as a selectable option as well. So I guess I really need to know what the names should be for everything to read right.

Time to update the poly and texture values?

Less than 2k polies for a fighter? And using a 512² map for it? That seems pretty outdated. I'm not sure about all values, but 10k for the lod 0 of a fighter shouldn't really be a problem anymore. And 1024² seems to be more the standard for fighter textures. Some mods start going even higher already.
