Best way to rig this Trebuchet?
I have here with me a more or less complete trebuchet model, but I'm not sure of the optimal method of rigging it. I want the ropes in the bottom left to move as realistically as possible during launch. The central beam, axles, and counterweight are all linked without any MassFX modifiers The ropes and sling have an mCloth… -
Fiat 500 Wip
Hey all, This was a Fiat I modelled some time ago that I have decided to create a high poly for, texture, and hopefully turn into a portfolio piece. I nearly trashed this project when I discovered how many well modelled"Fiats" were featured in Call of Duty: MW2 one day, however I've decided to not let that put me off and… -
3d Max Align Viewport to face selection
Anyone know where the max plug in thread went? Did a quick search and brought up nothing. I'm not known to put in the best search terms. Anyhow would like a script that will align the viewport to face a polygon face or selection (when a selection and not flat, the average). Otherwise, a script that will realign individual… -
Going from XSI to learning 3DS max
I haven't messed around with max too much, and most of the tutorials I'm finding seem for people completely new to 3D, so if anyone has any suggestions for decent tutorials that would be really appreciated. So far I have a few questions, is there a way to show wireframe once you select a polymesh? Is there a quicker way to… -
3dsmax Quick and Dirty Workflow Tips!
I read a lot in forums, people asking about things that are very easily done and they are either looking in the wrong direction or they are hidden so deep that you can't just spot them out easily. On top of that.. not many really mention them in tutorials! These will be very useful especially for people who start getting… -

A little workflow treasure in max which not many people are aware of!
A great tool that max has.. and not many people use it.. in fact i bet many think it's pointless and useless :) so they never noticed that it is now slightly broken but still very much usable and in exactly the same way. It takes a few extra words to explain how and why use this instead of WP, but it is much easier to use… -
Advanced Skeleton Building Problem
A friend of mine recently recommended I use Advanced Skeleton for rigging a character I want to animate. I looked up a tutorial and followed it but I'm having several problems. I'm not sure if everyone here is familiar with Advanced Skeleton, but it seems to be pretty popular, so I hope someone knows. First off, I know… -
Autodesk Sketchbook Questions
I recently started using Sketchbook (previously just Photoshop) and the program appears to be fairly easy to pick up. However, despite looking up a number of search terms and reading charts of hotkeys, I have yet to find ways to re-enact certain functions I frequently use in photoshop. 1) Centering the image. The y-reflect… -
3DS Max move gizo scales from center instead of moving?
Hello everyone, For some obscure reason my move gizmo scales things (verts/edges/faces) from the center of the selected element (in this case a stair step) instead of actually moving on the appropriate plane. Has this happened to anyone before? At the moment I am attempting to move some verts around and instead of moving…
