I think the major hassle with doing 3d games is that you need 3d models. My modelling skills are pretty much way below average. Especially for doing humans.

Does anyone have a link to sites that provide low polygon models to use in freeware projects?

Either that or know how to get md2 or md3 models into 3Dmax incl the animation?

I have looked on the web for ages but I seem to go around in circles.
