3DS Max - Compound Objects - Loft -Part 1

0 votes

In this tutorial, we will start learning about a very powerful modeling tool in 3DS Max, called Loft, found in the Geometry, Compound Objects section. This tool needs a path and some cross sections, and it contains many powerful features to manipulate and customize the resulting geometry. This is the first video for the Loft tool, and hopefully, as soon as possible, I will make a second one to cover some of the other features of this powerful tool.

3DS Max - Compound Objects - ShapeMerge

0 votes

In this tutorial, we will learn about a new Compound Object called ShapeMerge. This object will help you to imprint/Stamp a 2D shape onto a surface, also to cut out the 2D shape from that surface, also, you can invert the cutout operation. This is a useful tool if you like to create a road on a land/landscape or cut out a text, or any other closed shape pattern from a surface.

3DS Max - Convert A Procedural Map Into A Regular Texture

0 votes

In this tutorial, we will learn how to convert a procedural map into a regular texture map. This is useful when you try to export your model to another software, since those procedural maps belong to Max, and they are generated using an algorithm.

3DS Max - Create A Custom Construction Plane

0 votes

In this video, we will see how we can create our own construction plane,
close to the UCS thing in AutoCad. We will learn also how we can place a construction plane on top of a specific face so that this face's orientation will be the custom construction plane's orientation. In the end, will we learn how we can use this custom grid as a handy modeling aid in complex geometry. Also in this last section, we will deal with the problem when you try to use the Auto Grid on a Polygon that shares the same smoothing group with an adjacent face.

3DS Max - Curve Editor Blank - Fixed

0 votes

In this quick tip 3DS Max tutorial, we will see how to fix the blank Curve Editor when we try to open it after selecting an object.

3DS Max - Easy Modeling - FreeForm Geometry

0 votes

In this video, we will learn a quick and flexible technique for modeling freeform shapes. We will use a Surface modifier, Shell modifier, and Turbosmooth for that purpose. You can use this approach to model a wide range of geometries like roads going up and down, ribbons, etc,...

3DS Max - Edit Poly - Different Usage For Animate

0 votes

In this tutorial, we will see how we can use the Animate feature in the Edit Poly modifier so that we can, after adding another modifier on top of it, go back and change some of the values of the parameters, like for example, Bevel, Extrude, Inset, etc,...

3DS Max - FBX Export Warning: Non-orthogonal matrix support - Fix

0 votes

When exporting from 3DS Max to FBX sometimes we get this Warning: Non-Orthogonal matrix support. In this video, we will learn how to fix this problem, we also learn what that warning means and how it happens by reproducing it using various scenarios.

3DS Max - Group tool is not available - Grayed out - Solved

0 votes

In this short video, we'll see why the Group tool, sometimes, becomes grayed out and not available. The reason for that is the presence of opened group among the selected objects.

3DS Max - Hidden Feature - QClone - Clone By View

0 votes

In this 3DS Max tutorial, we will learn about a nice hidden feature called QClone, that will allow us to clone objects based on their bounding box and the viewport's axis we are perpendicular to.
