Modeling a Lego Snowspeeder in 3ds max
Submitted by sjaakalvarez on Sat, 2007-02-17 10:58.In this tutorial I will build a complete Star Wars LEGO model from scratch using Autodesk 3ds Max 8.

Setting up Ultra Edit as your Maxscript Editor
Submitted by Chris Johnson on Thu, 2007-01-25 00:46.This document is meant to get a person RAPIDLY set up to use Ultra Edit as a maxscript editor.
