I know it can be done, because I have created 3D models in Mechanical Desktop that a colleague used to make a make a flyaround in 3DS Max. MDT is a program that sits on top of AutoCAD Mechanical, and it saves files in the .dwg format.

I'm not sure how to bring in the .dwg files. Probably go to File > Import.

You might also post this question in the AUGI forums or the Autodesk Discussion Groups.
