Why buy a book? I've never used books to learn stuff like that before. Even in our java class where reading the book was mandatory I didn't need it.

Does anyone else think this screen-cap is incredibly hilarious? He's like "RAWR!" but he looks so ridiculous it's hard to keep a straight face.

Because everything else has failed to help so far. Haha.

This is the only thing I have yet to learn from messing around with it.

Yeah... I always just learn new things by messing around with them. Unfortunately this can be frustrating and time-consuming.

Messing with Max = do not work. Too many buttons.

Ha ha! icon_biggrin.gif
Looking forward to see the results in a few months. icon_biggrin.gif

They teach Maya at the university I've applied to. From what I've read it is harder to learn than 3D Studio MAX. icon_sad.gif

I'm assuming that it's a 3d graphics program.
I originally thought it was a type of 3ds, but that went away with the mention of maya an the 'anyone using it?'.
Probably capable of animation, too.

Figured I'd steal a cruise ship
Sail it off a waterfall while covered in gold paint
Handstanding next to a mariachi band
On fire

Autodesk® 3ds Max® and Autodesk® 3ds Max® Design software provide powerful, integrated 3D modeling, animation, rendering, and compositing tools that enable artists and designers to more quickly ramp up for production. The two versions share core technology and features, but offer differentiated experiences and specialized toolsets for game developers, visual effects artists, and graphic designers on the one hand, and architects, designers, engineers, and visualization specialists on the other.

Let me help you with that.

Thank you!

That would be funny if they came out with a new 3DS model called "3ds max" Then this topic would get confusing!

Good thing 3DS Max is probably trademarked, so that will never happen.
