| hey.. on 3ds max 8, i see objects as either a block of colour (when ive got the viewport set as smooth & highlights) or a wire frame (if i choose wireframe) but in the tutorial i'm using it shows the colour of the object, and the wire frame |

| press f4? |
| Max3D |
| Click on SHOW EDGES or f4 hehe |
| Ted Town |
| is there a way i can set my max to be like this? where's the show edges option, as im sure ill forget F4! hehe |
| drop007 |
| hm nope, better start learning shortcuts ;) |
| Max3D |
| ive tried to get myself out of using too many shortcuts in max lately, cuz i keep using Zbrush shortcuts in max and vice versa show edges , right click on the viewport text ( front, left , perspective ) |
| drop007 |
| ah :) that must be tough, i prefer the shortcuts, i mainly use one package, and it speeds up the workflow quite a bit :) |
| Max3D |
| oh dont get me wrong, shortcuts are definately the way to go but i sometimes am going inbetween zbrush and max at the same time, and well it gets messy hehe specially inside zbrush |
| drop007 |
| i can imagine :) |
| Ted Town |
| ahh hah, youre gods! thanks for that.. I can continue with my tutorial now :) |
| Max3D |
| Did you ever use it, drop007? when your editing your 3dmodel , and your in edit mode, if you hit a shortcut that takes you out of edit mode , you can no longer edit your 3dmodel, its not baked to the canvas and no longer a full 3d model hehe big uh-oh type shit goin on then |
| drop007 |
| nope not yet Max3D, too bad, i wanna try it soon, need to get my char modelling skills somewhat higher though |
| sperll |
| It's a shame they don't make a Zbrush addon within Max |
| Max3D |
| well there are several apps that are adding micro modeling tools to their toolset in upcoming versions i know Silo was one of them, theres another app thats along the same lines as silo the name illudes me but yes 3dsmax definately needs to consider adding support for baking down multi-million poly mesh details Zbrush still holds the torch for that type of detailing though i havnt made a model over 5000 poly's in max since i got zbrush hehe |
