This course contains a little bit of everything with modeling, UVing, texturing and dynamics in Maya, as well as compositing multilayered EXR's in Photoshop.

Plugins Plugins Plugins !!!

I am subcribed to 3Dworld, and excellent magazine all about 3D and stuff. I recently red that Discreet has put a new version of max on the market, 3DS Max 5.

The most annoying this about these program's is that when a new version comes out 99% of all the plugins you have do not work ! So in the time i was working with max and upgraded to a newer version you had to waith for x months to have an update on your plugin.

So the people at discreet thought about is i guess and what they did is that the plugin used fr version 4 is also compatible with version 5 (99.9% of all the plugins should work fine !)

So then I wonder why A|W doesn't do the samething with Maya !

When you have a new version the plugins I use do not work ! and to wait for an updat is very very annoying !
