3ds Max | Tutorials

In this tutorial, we will see how we can bind sub-object elements to an external object using a modifier called Linked XForm, so that when modifying the transforms of this object the sub-object elements will be affected. We will three different scenarios where this modifier can be useful. Of course, you can think of different scenarios of your own. Also, we will see how we can animate the external objects and have the sub-object elements animated without really creating any keyframes for them.

In this tutorial, we will see how, when we're working on a single maximized viewport, we can quickly see the content of the other viewports, and switch to the one we want. This provides visual feedback, in case we forgot the name of the viewport we want to work in.

This tutorial will give you a basic understanding of the under-the-hood relation between the modifier stack and the transform engine inside 3DS Max. This will help you understand some of the issues that may occur, that look weird.

In this video, you will learn how to create different scene states for different rendering scenarios without having to save multiple Max files. After creating those states you can toggle between them in one click.
