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 series we will learn about the powerful 2D tool called ShapeBoolean, where you can combine multiple shapes, closed or opened, to form a resulting shape using various methods. In this first part, we will learn 3 different methods: Union, Subtract, and Intersect. Also, we will see the importance of the order we choose the combined shapes, plus the nice feature of adding Fillet or Chamfer to those combined shapes.

In this tutorial, we'll model a simple chair, as requested by a viewer, we'll see one approach to model chairs like this. We'll also learn how to assign different material IDs to the polygons, allowing us to create a Multi/Sub-Object material with three distinct materials for the chair(without configuring the materials' properties, just colors). Additionally, as always, I'll include useful tips and information.
