Object Paint — 3ds Max 2011 New Features

Accelerate modeling and texturing tasks with new tools that extend the Graphite modeling and Viewport Canvas toolsets: a revised toolset for 3D painting and editing textures within the viewport; the ability to paint with object brushes to create geometry within a scene; a new brush interface for editing UVW coordinates; and an interactive tool for extending edge loops.

Thumbs up if you think 3ds max is better then maya :D

Nice... I love how you guys are warring over maya and 3DS... they're made by THE SAME COMPANY!!!

[Dreamcube017]

@TheJPTL Well they have a few different feature sets. I'm kind of new at both, but Max is more for poly modeling where Maya is more for nurbs. You can do either in both, but one is better at one thing than the other. Maya seems to have a better UI,, but after looking through tutorials, Max seems to be better. I suggest you test them both out if you can. They both have great documentation. Max is more games, Maya is more films and effects.

@Dreamcube017 could you tell me the main differences of 3ds and maya since u have played around with both of them? also if you know, i was just wondering which program is used by most people and big companies. thanks :)

[Dreamcube017]

@TheJPTL Fare enough. Since my previous comments on this video, I've messed around with both Max and Maya. I have to say that now I do realize that they work differently and to me, Max just seems a bit less complicated overall... but Blender and C4D are still less complicated than both those put together and can do amazing work...

@cr0uchingtiger It might be used by 1% of the film industry, but I'm betting it's used by about 90% of the game industry.

@Dreamcube017 just because they r made by the same company doesnt mean u cant argue over the two programs. wat ur saying is like u cant compare photoshop and illustrator, or inventor and autocad just because they r made by the same company. they r different programs and thus u can war about them

[cr0uchingtiger]

If max was better than maya it would be used by more than about 1% of the movie industry. I say that as someone who has used max for 12 years and doesn't like maya.

@dinkelstefan I think they are both good. Because I used 3D max for the first time, I speak for 3D max of course, and because I also use AutoCAD to interchange between two apps, I use 3D max.

thanks a lot

@robloxyoyoman2 People who earn more than that per month by using it.

$3500 programs are not for hobby.

@Dreamcube017 right, but one can still be better than the other, like a ford mustang vs a pinto..same company but vast difference
