3Ds Max 6 ... n00b question ... very n00b

[Kuntzy]

I most fimilar with LightWave ... and i recently got 3Ds Max, and was looking for the part of 3Ds Max that is like the modeler in LightWave ... sorry if the easyness of the question offends anyone ...

what do you mean by "modeller"

[PaddyLong]

lightwave is a piece of shit.

3ds isn't broken into the modeller and animator... there's just one interface... just look for some simple tutorials about modelling and animating and you'll start figuring out where everything is

Thanx, I've found the modifiers and other stuff, i just can't figure out how to get the render to render the screen from my camereas point of view.

Wow, have you even seen anything made in Lightwave3D? What are you basing your statement on?

[Tony]

you click on the top left corner of the view to bring up its config menu, from there you can select a camera... left/right, top/bottom and any custom cameras you've got in your scene

then when clicking render, make sure you have that camera selected (work window selected for quick render I think)
