Psyk0Sith Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 -3D studio max 5 up to 8, which is not free -Gmax, only for sabers and static objects -To put into a .pk3, use winzip and rename the extension to .pk3 or use pakscape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-=*Raz0r*=- Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Just something to add, modeling isn't a skill you learn overnight. If you really want to learn, stick to it and don't get discouraged! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyk0Sith Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 That means you need to switch your renderer, possibly to DirectX. Create a text file with the command line like so: gmax -h (gmax being the name of the executable file to launch the app...im not sure what it is so i put gmax) save the file, rename it to .bat, something like renderer.bat, put that file where the gmax .exe file is, launch renderer.bat, when gmax starts, you should have a box appear allowing you to choose a new renderer, if directX is there, pick that, if not use openGL, in last resort pick Heidi...if available. If all goes well, you'll be able to launch gmax as usual, without the -h option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluefire97 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Just go to the filefront forums, these forums, or to JKA Filefront tutorials. Just google it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archangel35757 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Go to the Turbosquid GMAX website here: http://www.turbosquid.com/gmax ...and then download everything (it's free)-- the help files, tutorials, etc. and install all of it. Then open up GMAX Help and Tutorials and work thru them. They will start you off assuming no basic knowledge and teach you how to navigate the user interface and then all the modeling stuff. Have Fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
