Well, if the program 3dsmax is going to be used to develop the content of the game, then I'd suggest implementing the gmax extensions, so that the players who create additional content do not have to pay a large sum of money to contribute to the community.
If you didn't know, gmax is a free application with much of the power of the full 3ds max program. The best part is, it's free, and it works with several popular game titles that are out today. It's meant for the gamer who wants to take the next step into customizing games or creating mods, or the gamer who just wants to extend the life of the current title they are playing.

Graal 3d will definately be cool. It'll be interesting to see how it all plays out, and hopefully you guys will keep us all informed. Thanks!
