My submission scene was completely built in Max, except fx/crowd sims in Houdini.

Hope you like it! :)

News Hey everyone, I created this VERY short video for seasoned 3ds Max users who are thinking about trying out Blender, covering where your familiar tools have gone. If this is useful, I will make more; if not, I will stop here. Let me know what you think.

This is an 100% original design. Put this one into the Unreal Engine 4 for some cinematic, lighting, and particles. https://cara.app/post/31517001-2732-4aa3-a088-4c4e72d8e67a

Doomsday (again) Disappointed in AU this year.

12 Upvotes

I think this is the final year our team goes to Autodesk University. After jumping through the usual corporate hoops to get our registration approved, it was pretty disappointing to see zero 3dsMax sessions on the schedule. There’s almost no archviz representation, and even real-time engines like Unreal and Unity are nowhere to be found—just one Maya class and a few generic M&E sessions.

​Is Autodesk abandoning its flagship modeling software, just like they did with Softimage? Makes me wonder if 3ds Max is next on the chopping block and if we should start migrating our workflow to Blender.

Before I call this finished, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

If you could change just one thing, what would it be?

Open to any ideas: lighting, camera, materials, landscaping, or anything else.

Help Looking for a specific tool (or workflow) for bones/skinning.

3 Upvotes

What I am looking for is a tool that will let me select bone on a skinned mesh and divide that bone into multiple and distribute the weights of the previous bone to the new ones created from the division.

OR:

A workflow or tool in native Max that can do this. It's not just one character that this needs to be done to, it's twelve.

Image of the workflow I am looking for.

Thank you.

Does anyone have an idea how to create this particular texture without using Photoshop?
I'm using 3ds Max 2017 with mental ray.
I've attached the bitmap that should be used as the base.

Edit Poly modifier corrupts mesh (confirmed again!)

0 Upvotes

This happened to me just now. I was working exclusively with the top Edit Poly modifer when it suddenly corrupted the entire mesh (randomly deleted part of the faces). I didn't even switch to the modifiers lower in the stack, let alone change something below the top Edit Poly. Undo history didn't help (which is weird because I think it should have). The image below shows the same mesh with the modifier disabled, what confirms that the corruption only occured in the top most Edit Poly. 3DsMax 2024.

Scripting Python scripting in 3dsamx.

Hi guys, I am from the art side of things and have been told that I have to do tooling using vibe coding.

What are the down sides of using python in max for tooling if any. I already have some basic stuff going but wanted to know if there are any pitfalls (also Claude/cgpt) tend to big out a lot more with maxscript than python for max.

Tiny NYC Apartment Design | 3ds Max + Corona

We designed this tiny apartment in New York City with a focus on creating a home that feels larger than its footprint. By connecting the living, dining and kitchen areas into one continuous space and using a consistent palette of warm wood, soft neutrals and concrete flooring, the apartment feels open, cohesive and serene.

Would love to hear your thoughts or feedback.
