Hey, is anyone familiar with 3D Studio Max 4? My cousin is a university professor and she managed to get me a copy of this program. Is anybody familiar with the software? Warcraft 3 just released their art tools which require the use of this program to implement them. Please, if you're familiarized with this program, give a shout.

I have 3Ds max 5 and of course, I suck at using it and only know what like 10% of the functions are. Those 3D programs are too damned complicated.

Yeah I know... It's really tough to use. This is a program which I know I cannot learn by myself unless I spend hours upon hours of dedication

I don't think I could've possibly learned how to use it if I didn't go through some tutorials. They really help when you have no clue what you're doing. www.totaltutorials.com has some good ones for 3ds max I think.

Well I have no idea on this cause I've never seen it...
Just wondering what are your opinions on if War3 mapmakers are going to be able to utilise this well enough to make decent mods? Or will it be hopelessly confusing for them? I'm gonna check in on my blizzard accts on tuesday I think...

I tried some of the tutorials which come with the program but a lot of the image files they tell me to fetch up arent there. So much for helping me out, I'm now more confused

I forgot about the tutorials that it came with. I THINK mine had most of the files that it needed. I would just use tutorials from sites if they don't have those files.

The warcraft 3 character design tools come with tutorials but they take way too long. I might eventually follow through with them but I just dont want to dedicate that much time into it right now
