RE: [hlcoders] VALVe: GMAX?

[Kevin Navia]

its not only for mapping my friend, also modelling as wel, gmax is better suited as modelling program afterall, with a free tool very accessible to ppl who doesnt own max and having cool animation capabilities and behave almost similar to max, well gmax is the TOOL to use for budget lipped modders. (and it might help them get ported to the pro stuff)   --- -- --- -- --- -- --- -- --- -- --- Kevin "runab0ut" Navia     ----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dynerman David M Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 7:11 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [hlcoders] VALVe: GMAX?

I'm actually far more interested in the mapping "capabilities" of gmax.  I already have a nice legal version of max thanks to my college's bookstore.  However, I find that doing complex architectural stuff in a map is difficult.  (For example, making a statue is a pain in the butt.)  A modeling program is far better suited for stuff like this.  Complex objects are much more difficult to construct in Worldcraft.  Often a model is the only way to deal with this.  And then you have to use work-arounds like putting in clip brushes where the model is.  If gmax were set up to make prefabs, that'd be great.  WC is more than sufficient for everything else. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Eric Smith Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2001 2:37 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [hlcoders] VALVe: GMAX?
