Some of my work from our latest student game project When in Rome, for the Sony Playstation 3, on which I worked as lead environment artist and was responsible for all architectural assets. Will post up some more pictures as I get them ready. Realtime renders from Marmoset Toolbag: High-poly renders from Autodesk Maya: An…
Whats the deal with using older versions of Autodesk products in Europe? I know they don't sell them, and its difficult to buy a legit licensed copy. Also if you have an old copy, I'd read that they stopped supporting them exclusively. The force you to get the subscription also…

CAT was initially a 3ds Max plugin long before XSI existed - introduced somewhen around 2003-2004 as far i remember, but developed by the Softimage team.

We're doing this one again? I'm telling you, make a shirt with somebody or something pissing on the Autodesk logo and you'll be raking in millions of dollars a year. Use that money to buy out Autodesk and force even more stupid decisions onto your customers. This will cause the the value of each shirt to go up and people…
Autodesk FBX Review: http://apps.exchange.autodesk.com/MAYA/en/Detail/Index?id=appstore.exchange.autodesk.com%3Aappautodesk00aefbx00aereview%3Aen I haven't used it myself yet so I can't talk about ease of use or if it's good at all, but it looked interesting and promising and seems like it uses the same tech as new Maya…
I'd suggest looking at the licensing terms before stumping up any cash... if the Foundation can't publish then that means the terms granted by Autodesk would be as restrictive on an individual or group therein irrespective. After all FBX is the property of Autodesk. Collada has the same sort of problems, the Co. that…
Installing in the case of scripted modifiers means putting it somewhere where it will be run every time max starts - either in the %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Autodesk\3dsMax\2017 - 64bit\ENU\scripts\startup folder (you can paste this path in the explorer addressbar, it's valid) or in the C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max…
