ow Marc you say that like its a bad thing :) i remember trying to work with 5 characters i modelled rigged and animated in 3Ds Max, feed back was so slow i had to make playblasts, (previews) and when i did, the rig and bones would leave the meshes behind.
i find it difficult to imagine how max is still relevant when every year game assets get heavier, and i really liked max.
