BEST 3D software...

its like saying, what brush should be used to paint like Michealangelo...

i use 3dsmax, its easy getting the hang of it. (the modelling part) the texturing is a little bit tricky(especiall if your uvw mapping), rigging is a pain(atleast you do it one time only) animation is enjoyable but also very tiring.

milkshape is a cheap product but has good user base, blender is also a good application and is completely free.

the standard used by studios is either 3dsmax or maya. I recommend you learn one or the other, either way, both are good software but very expensive

sorry i mean 3D Studio Max VS MAYA.. sorry peeps..

kadalawon naman gud to nako gi.post.. sorry..

combined this 2 to make a good movie ( req. choosen talented user (T_T)

MAYA + STUDIO MAX grabe ka kote pero worthy sad kung maka himo ka og 3min. nga vid (1000+++++ frames) kung di nimo ma kaya ma boang cguro ka hehee

pa enroll na lang sa bigfoot Film academy tag 15k i think ( good part is, if they found out that ur good they will hire u , around 40k man cguro ang 3D animator nila sallary)

sus noh? lisud diay jud himo ug full 3d animations.

the matrix revolutions had thousands of gigs for its datas.

ang studio max pytes ra ,patients lang kailangan sa pag kato-0n sa mga gamit sa tools & let ur creativity hadle ur plan

ang maya atot mag sakit imo ulo, pero madala sad dapat lang power imo pc, ako na suwayan ani gamit G5 man di gihapon pas-pas med. ok ok ra

[chris_gorios]

oks rman ang duha kung gamiton pag naghimo ka ug animation, pero if you want to make a movie out of it nya mg render render ka dha ra sa imo pc, hehehe, dugay kaayo mahuma. you need a dedicated server farm (or at least one extra pc) just for rendering the screens for your completed "movie" if its more than a couple of minutes long.

so what is better? 3d StudioMax or Maya? can you give us some links on 3d Studio Max tutorials... thanks

blender. its open source, runs both on linux and windows. but runs faster on linux.

3ds? hinay kaau mo render maybe bec of the video card.
pc used to render in 3ds was amd 64 3000 1gb ram gforce 5200 128mb.

rendering of 3D gFX doesnt counts with its VIDEO CARD. but its the Front Side Bus and Processor
