Inside 3d Studio Max by Steven D. Elliott

by Steven D. Elliott

3D Studio Max for Windows 95 and Windows NT, the high-end 3-D modeling and animation package from Kinetix, is as complex as it is powerful. This guide, the second of three volumes for accomplished 3D Studio Max users, focuses on helping you create architectural, engineering, and character models and design models for VR (virtual reality) and the Web. The authors devote much attention to acquiring and managing material maps and creating natural, man-made, special effects, and animated materials. You get plenty of step-by-step instruction along with four-color illustrations of the project files. A CD-ROM includes sample files and utilities.
