In this tutorial, we will learn about an alternative way to attach geometries, that will help us to keep things parametric.

In this 3DS Max tutorial, we will see how we save and restore the position and rotation of the objects, so that, later on, we can restore them back to their original state. Also, we will take a look at specific scenarios where this technique might have undesirable results.

This is a two-part tutorial, where we learn about a powerful modifier called Displace. This modifier creates a magnetic force that pulls the vertices, allowing us to achieve interesting topologies. We can use the Giamo only to drive the pulling force as we will see in this 1rst part, or we can map a bitmap, or a procedural map onto the Gizom to control the strength of each pulling force coming out from this Gizom. Throughout these two videos, we will learn about the main parameters of this modifier.

In this tutorial, we will learn about using the Attribute Holder modifier. This modifier serves as a container, and we will use it to instance some of the parameters that belong to some of the modifiers in the stack so that we can change them in one place. This is useful because it can save us a lot of time. With many modifiers in the stack, it's time-consuming to go down and enter the modifier to change the values. Sometimes we might even forget in which modifier the parameter that we are looking for.
In addition, we will learn about the Animate option in the Edit Poly modifier.
