[tutorial] Rendering in 3Ds Max. Getting your items to look the best they can.

[Quanon]

Seeing a lot of WIP threads, which show a lot of new modeled items.

That means you got the show them at their best!

 

Ofcourse that means showing them ingame or taking a shot in the 3D program.

I know there few people who have 3Ds Max, but I've taken my time to write up a little tutorial on how to use its render power!

 

Not that I'm an expert, I just know a few bits and bobs, enough to make it look good

 

Gmax users will have to look for plugins, as the standard version of Gmax does not have any render function.

 

Here's the download link: CLICKY LINK

 

And this is whats possible when you know where to click

 

Some sillyness, but I just like doing renders.

 

 

Hope this will help some folks out.

Your area is rendered in 3dsm or in game? That cant be in game, as how did you get shading and shadows in the door entrances?

 

edit: nm i read your tute

[Quanon]

Nope, the area shot is a render from Max.

 

God I hope someday we'll get that nice shadows in the K-games.

 

EDIT: Its in there to show what nice things you can do if you put a little effort into it. Perhaps its a bit dubious, to show things a better then they can be ingame
