Diametric/Isometric views

NuggetOG

Hi,
I am creating a 3d model that needs to be rendered off in a diametric view.

Does anyone know how to do this in 3ds max? I have managed to set up the camera in an isometric position by rotating it 45 degrees on the x+y axis.

The model is for a uni project and I want the angle of it to be like the buildings in Ikariam.

The image below shows an isometric cube over one of the buildings in ikariam.



Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks :thumbup:

most likely 35° not 45° on the rotation x axis

So isn't it the dimetric 30 degree you want? Gives you more crisp diagonal lines.
Wikipedia has some good info on this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_projection
