I believe u cannot simply copy the zone files names and rename them... however, U could use an exporter to export the zone to a .3ds format where u can then import it into 3ds max... I have done this with some success however, one issue is that the texturing is slightly corrupted in that each poly has its texture aligned all in the same direction. EQ zones were textured through use of individual poly texturing from what i have observed... so if u were to simply import the .3ds file to OZ and create say a zone called arena.s3d to allow you to replace the existing arena with Karnors... the only major flaw would be that the textures would be somewhat strange... perhaps.... otherwise, this could be a solution to what u want to do.
FYI replacing arena.s3d with a new one will not replace the arena because the new arena is in the .eqg format and therefore the engine loads it instead. To fix this, simply remove or rename arena.eqg to arena.eqg.bak or something like this so that the engine skips the file and loads the .s3d. changing it to .bak also means u can easily remove that extension and it will revert to being used on servers that do use the file.
Another option is to delete or simply remove the .eqg file in question from the folder.
Hope this helps.
