Re: Game Industry focused Books (are there any?)
I highly recommend The Art of Game Design by Jesse Schell. I've met Jesse a few times and know people who work for him.

Re: the one 3ds max bug to rule them all.

Re: 3D model Baking practice
Thank you for this info and all. I appreciate your notes. I do have a few things. The part about hard edges having no slits or to say no seam will result in artificats.
