1. 3ds Max: Independent shading modes

   Possible newb question; how do you set independent shading modes for objects in Max? Example: I'm modeling a low poly mesh over the high and want to display the low poly in wireframe but have the high shaded only.

   You can create a new Layer for the High and set that Layer to any shading mode, you want. I do that for example for reference image planes, to have them shaded even when I am working in wireframe mode.
