Hi there:

I am not quite an expert, but you can try two things:

- The "Reactor" plugin for 3dsMax.
- The "Cloth" pluging for 3dsMax.

I think these tools will give you a hand.
Good luck!

hi,
tahnks for the advice.
i've tried cloth but i couldn't manage to atach it to the plane which i was using.
i've seen another thing, "Flex". i added wind. when i played the animation the edges of the plane did fall down, but it has no use because under the plane there is the table and i want the plane to fall down to the table.

i will try the "Cloth" again.
i am still searching for a tutorial :)

if anyone knows how to do this, please let me know. :)

I have no experience in 3DS MAX, but this Google search seems to lead to some good stuff.
