Your 3DSmax tutorial expect too much knowledge beforehand IMO, like how to aquire those textures, where to find Eshme's tools. Also following it and made a 200cmx100cmx100cm block, was huuuuge ingame. Like if the player was 1.25cm tall. System unit and the other unit was centimeters. ...how did your pedestral turn out?

Is Blender a possible 3D sub to Gmax and 3ds? Because I really did not like using 3ds, and Gmax is being a jerk to me.

krimson_wolf - there is a blender script available yes. i do not know its capabilities but i know it has been successfully used to create dragon age format models. cant tell you the entire process though...

first hit on "blender dragon age" in google:

I have enjoyed your every tutorial so far, mikemike37. You make the hard work easy. Thanks!

Are there more coming...? If yes, might I suggest areas like cutscenes, scripting and such?

[Krimson_Wolf]

Thanks mike.

Thank you for this! Since I injured my leg I am sitting down resting for a week and thought to teach myself new tricks. (Who says an old dog can't learn them!) And this is a great help.

youre welcome guys, glad you have found them helpful. I havent had time to do any more of these, and probably wont for at least a short while. My next tutorial project will be 3d studio max tips for my classmates. perhaps after that ill look into doing a scripting one and maybe a VFX one. I will need to look into a cutscene one though since ive never actually made one myself!
