The best thing you can do about maxscript is going through the tutorials and stuff inside max.Furthermore reading some other maxscripts(unencrypted ones of course). Wasn´t it our very own MoP who made a little tutorial for the beginners? I can´t forget what he said there... This is the listener, this can be fun.Pink is for…

I don't have much to add to the list on MaxScript. There's a bunch of stuff on Tech-Artists wiki but nothing easily accessible for beginners. @SimonT: Sorry I can't…

It isn't meant to compete with the Tech Artist - What are you working on thread, but rather compliment it in the same way that Technical Talk relates to Pimping and Previews. Nor is it meant to compete…
Applications, Tools, and Utilities: An IDE short for Integrated Development Environment for those wondering is just a fancy text editor that makes common programming tasks easier. They look pretty intimidating when you first open them up (I still get scared sometimes...). But with a few tutorials, blind experimentation, or…
Languages and Useful Libraries: A library for those wondering is just a fancy name for some code other people have written that you can use along with your own code to accomplish a specific task, such as making games. ActionScript 3 - link The language of Flash, great for web based indie games and as renderhjs has shown,…
