I wonder weather someone could make a short-ish video of clips of themselved making a model. I am interested to see some of the techniques and tools used in gmax.

You should really get 3ds max 8, not 9.
That way the exporter will work and you won't have to import models like we had to back in the day for renx.

The cost of 3dsmax is in the thousands. I recommend an educational edition to save a ton of money, that is if you're still in school. Gmax has practically the same interface, but it is FAR from 3dsmax in terms of abilities. Blender is quite close to 3dsmax, and it's open-source. It's a little tricky to learn though.

I have a 3D max 7 disk sitting on my desk... never touched it. I have always just worked with renx.
OK hold on, you're telling me that you can open w3d models instead of importing them? And are thier plug-ins for it that rival what renx can do? If so then i'm changing, in a second.

Dunno if I've posted this before, but there is a Wikibook for Blender.

Yeah, I've known about that, I just haven't taken the time to study it yet.

stick with renx. i have not personally ever touched max, but most things ren supports can be done in renx. its just the scripts that are diff, so some things will take a little longer.
$1000s compared to half the tools and free.
i know due to browsing 3dsmax tuts knowing half of them can be done with gmax.
unless someone is dum enough to post a torrent and take full responsibility of everyone downloading it and also suppling fake authontication, dont get it. anyway, all your work you have done on gamx would be wasted unless you export absolouteley everthing and import absoloutely everything. anyway, you would lose the materials, and i think also if you have unwrapped anything, your a gonna.
boo 3dsmax

Gmax is truly NOT the way to go for modeling. Making maps is doable and not so bad, but still rather limited. Those of you who haven't tried anything more powerful than Gmax (and say it can still do half the stuff) haven't seen the light in 3D modeling.
