| Hi everyone!
I'm just starting 3D, need some help/advice, and better understanding these programs. Right now I have and wish to use:
3D Studio Max9
Zbrush 3
Lightwave 9
Poser 7
Carrara 5 Pro
Bryce 6.1
(Daz Studio but I think it was bundled with something...?)
I do not not have Motion Builder but I really want it. :)
The thing is...... I don't really understand how this "works" I'm doing this all on my own. It took me awhile just to find these programs but i dunno understand how these applications apply exactly and how they work together.... (I hope I'm not unclear?)
I got 3d studio max cause that's what a bunch of video gamers use but what separates it from Lightwave? ZBrush is a lot of fun, all I'm doing with it is modifying files, but what can I do with it afterwards? Can I animate the object as well? What can I do with poser as compared to Carrara and Motion Builder? Landscaping wise I only know of Bryce. Can I Import/Export files between all these programs or is that not possible?
I bought several textbooks for these programs and starting to read up on it, but I find it kind of confusing mostly cause I dunno which program to start with and how they all work together.
I'm "stuck" in a college that never even heard of any of these programs and I want to learn on my own between studies. I mean, I certainly won't learn it in class. |
