 i am verymuch interested to learn 3d max because of its realistic rendering. But it is very costly to learn 3d max from institution. So i have bought 2 tuitorial CD from market. But both of them couldn't help me much. They are teaching material rendering, many projects. But i even can't learn how to draw a measured line. if i want to draw a 3 inches line how can i put the measurement? I can draw a measured box but cant draw measured line. In autocad we can join various line and make a space and then extrude it. So we can make 3d of any shape. How can i do it in MAX? When i import a 3d file from CAD to MAX i find it in group. So i cant render it's different parts. How can i break the 3d model in different parts? If anyone know these answers or have any website or reference plz tell me. I can do rendering and lighting but cant draw a measured line. Its very funny. And i think the tutorial CD's are also very funny cause they dont teach basic.

 i don't know why u need to draw a measured line in max???? max is only for 3d modelling and rendering and no 2-d... anyways its better u model in max and render, if u import the model frm cad it will be vry irregular and the polygons won't be perfect.. my advice is u learn from the tutorials u get along with max in help or download tutorial files frm max websites.. i learnt that way and its pretty easy..

hello
Himel
piece of advice
self learning is the best learning


but,
you can also
learn by "help menu" in "3dmax"
there you can find
user reference, tutorial & hot key map

those options are very helpfull

on the other hand you can also
try the links below

 himel,
i will suggest u one thing that is, always avoid drawing in 3d max and 3d cad. though cad is helpful for 3d model but it has some problem. as max helps u to do final render why would u go to cad for modelling. besides max has some powerful tools of creating model which is very easy to use rather than cad. just import drawing from cad to max and create model upon it. complete all editing job on cad. don't do it over studio max. if u want to edit it u can but not that much easy. firstly u have to decide what will u do while importing something. during import a pop up menu arrives everytime to select layer. if u check on each layer u can do any editing on each layer. u can do some edit on different layer though it is tough.
i will suggest another thing if u want to learn max from ur heart then go through the help file which was RAF's opinion.
last but not the least, try to involve with some proffessional project. it will help u like a powerful medicin u can't imagine. to improve ur skill there is no other way. from my experience automatically u will be sharp if u involve somewhere.

 In help tuitorail there are projects. not basic tuitorial. Supose i have import 2d plan from CAD, i tried to extrude it but that didn't extrued like cube or box. The thikless line extrude only. means a hollow cube or box without roof.

Please tell me how can i do modelling in max. Just give me the basic key words. I will search for it.

dear himel vaia,
how r u ?
u have to follow the sequencial rules of max. they describ it very easiliy. if u skip some of them out of the total u would be in desester. so carefully follow all the basic tutorial if u want to create a leakless knowledge about max.
lets talk about max: u tried to import 2d plan from cad to max. but u can't extrude it. in this case the lines from cad file will no modified like extrude. rather u can create polyline over the line or boundery area in CAD. then u can extrude it naturally.morever u can draw line over that plan. suppose u need a orthogonal shape. u can create line by line command on max u know it as i guess. if u have to create an irregular shape in max there are lots of way. the best way is to create outer surface by using boundary command. after create it there is an outer polygonal line over the previous line. u can delete all lines exept polygonal line. in this process save as command helps a lot in cad. however, the main thing is u can solve this problem in two ways:
01. creating line from right side max tools.(doing orthogonal line)
02. bringing polyline from CAD (using- BO- boundery command)

have i solved ur problem? himel vaia? er por o jodi kono problem thake plz. don't fell bother to knock me again.


.................. have fun with StudioMAX
