So was 3ds max 
So was 3DSM :sure:.
Gah you said maya and changed it. Doh.
Well Maya was used too, one of the head maya teachers over at gnomon was working on it, but I couldnāt find any proof in 30 seconds of looking online, so I canāt post thatā¦
wow, nice find DDD. :thumb:
I will have to give this a go when i get a chance.
:: ZBrush rocks!!
Aww man everyone has used ZBrush but me 
Lightwave > Maya > 3DSM
Maya is more hi-pol stuff, 3dsm is popular for lo-poly game models and whatnot. Lightwave can do both and comes with a kick arse renderer.
just reading 3d world and zbrush 2 has gotten rave reviews. There are just so many apps these daysā¦
Yeah a ton of apps and a lot are low cost, look at C4d low cost (compared to the grand daddies) and amazing. Zbrush and Silo are other good examples.
Lightwave was used for Day After tomorrow and a bunch of other films
ā¦ For the poster work, maybe teeheeā¦
Lightwave, 3ds, maya incorporated in film fx arenāt the commercial ones but pumped up company versions with proprietary plugsā¦ Iād like to see a 3ds version used in movies - it must be crazyā¦
and as for a free excellent 3d appā¦ USE BLENDER !!!
Lightwave was also used in League of extraordinary Gentlemenā¦Or something like that. And hellboy I believe. But each has its own glory. And in the hands of the right artist. Each can shine brighter than the other. So I would call it a four way tie between the big boys of the game.
Dipi - How is maya better than 3DSM :puzzled:? Almost every professional used 3DSM over mayaā¦
Just curious what makes you think this? Alot of studios use them in conjunction as part of the pipeline. Pretty bold statement.
Dunno - 2advanced said they never use mayaā¦
Maybe I take their word too stronglyā¦?
Is this as bad as rhino3D?
I have to admit,
3DSM is not better then Maya, nor is maya better then 3dsm. Usually people who canāt grasp the logic and expertese of Maya, go for the easier/cheaper 3dsm.
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHahahahhAHHAHAHā¦they are not a 3d studio. And their word is piss when it comes to this. That is more of a preference.
Lol - billy bussey used 3DSM too :P.
these are just casual users, now if valVe or Eidos or Bungie says we dont endorse a product then I would listen. But a couple of hobbyist I would not take their word. Exampleā¦dont take my wordā¦lol
Hey triple-d,
Are there any specific cool renders from LW that you can show me? Donāt worry, Iām easily impressed by 3D :P.
I never said that, no, if you want it to be, then go right ahead.
Actually I said that because you told me that ever since I moved to 3DSM from maya on AIM. That the person who isnāt āgoodā at maya tends to switch to the āeasierā and ācheaperā thing :).
I guess 3DSM is easy then.
