This is one of those areas where Gracious Professionalism comes into play. Yes, there may be ways to mask the fact that you actually did not use the Autodesk software, but this is only because they're not having you send the actual 3dsmax file. I personally think, however, that part of the challenge with the Animation competition, as well as the robot itself, is that for the most part, all teams are working with the same materials. Each team may have their own frame(3dsmax plugins, photoshop for textures, etc.) but it all comes together with a common set of motors and controls(the 3dsmax software). Not the best analogy, I'm sure, but you should be able to get the idea...
