I should have gone through all the links one by one before I posted this because there were tons of dead links. Hopefully they're all working now. 3DSMAX GENERAL TUTORIALS NEW! (French) (provided... heaps of tuts there. the tuts that come with max are ok for getting started. you can get more max plugins from [www.3dluvr.com](http://www.3dluvr.com) as well. Max 5 has some issues using plugins written for max4, even though its supposed to be backwards compatible. Make sure you before you install extra plugins to make a new folder (preferably under plugins) and adjust your max.ini file to load the plugins in the new folder. Trust me, it’ll save you alot of headaches if a plugin goes wrong. ---
