i dont do any modeling and i had no intention of actually learning anything or watching more than 2 minutes of this, but you managed to grab me for the whole video. now i think i will download 3ds max and try something. great tutorial, i love that it isnt painfully slow like some others.
are you working on blockbuster movies now?
Holy crap! This tut is the only beginner one I need on the whole internet!!!
You are the best in clear voice bro, and explaining it crystal clear... Thumbs up...
Thanks for the great tutorial. I just finished part 2 and I can say that I have learned more than what I have learned in my 4 years of college!
You explained very beautifully all the important tools. Thank you Sir!
Thank you for this. These tutorials are packed with information and pretty well organized. Just what I need coming from maya since you don't waste so much time explaining the basics.
I must say this is the most complete tutorial on youtube which anybody can wish for.
This Tutorial was amazing!
You've simplified it so well. Thank you for sharing and making this amazing video.
Will definitely recommend this to new 3ds max users, just like me.
Yeah it is a DISGRACE then in this day and age we still need to watch tutorials... EVERYTHING that is made by Germans .... NO problem why because we in Europe we are SOPHISTICATED but the moment we need to deal with American crap like this................ it takes hours and hours and hours to find the things that SUPPOSE to be logic to us designers but yanks don't care about delivering good stuff EVERYTHING they make ..... sucks soooo hard !!!! Lucky I cracked the program .... because it is not worth 2900 dollars not even 10 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why is it that yanks can NOT deliver ANYTHING worth more then 10 bucks it is amazing
Thank you for these tutorials, they helped me a lot!
One of the best tutorials i found! Thanks a lot...
Very good tutorial man, you explain really well!
Your video just help me a looooot! Very clear explanation to everything, thank you so much❤️
thank you i hope your channel gets to 1M subs you deserve it.
do more of this!! this is amazing
In Toronto film school and u teach it better then the professor in here thanks ur video hleped alot and gave me hints to next lesson.
Hello sir, you explained it very well easy to understand in your way of teaching. Thankyou so much for this
Very very detailed tutorial
Amazing content
13:06 mind blown lol thank you!
Thank you so much for your tutorial! To be honest, your tutorial is way more detailed and easy to follow than what my professor taught in college lol. Really appreciate your work!
same. and £30,000 cheaper :D
@Danger Noodle yes?
@Danger Noodle no man 🙂
So valuable!
you have about the software. I personally enjoy learning so it was a little bit easier to do it over ti. But you’ll get there brother
Good job, thanks
very informative! thanks a lot! ;)
thank you for tutorials
You are the best!!!!!
thank you so much
Hi, I'm new to Max and finding your tutorials really helpful. One question I have ref tool layouts etc. From 10.25 when you select modifiers. I don't seem to have the options below the modifier list. Edit poly, shell, geometry etc. So have to right click. I also then don't get the extra pop up with the soft selection etc. please advise?
Hello. I am currently struggling with the twist modifier. My problem is I can't keep the bottom my object from twisting like yours when I "connect" the spikes.
how do you get your windows to be like this? Such as how your Edit Poly and Poly Select are all tabs on the side instead of dropdowns?
OK, so i have made my model. now i need to texture it. How?
Almost fell asleep wNice tutorialle listening to Nice tutorials voice
Thx a lot.
I'm stuck at the part around 12:00. When I go to drag a selection of the vertexes up, the modifier goes crazy and suddenly stretches the area far off into the abyss. I don't have that issue when I select the Z axis on the bottom of the window. Any idea what's going on?
Any chance you have a Preference set we can download and use? finding it hard to find some tools you have
How did you do that selection at 24:45 where you only select faces to a certain point? I want to do that with faces, edges and verts but have no idea how to do it. In Maya it used to be a simple select face, hold shift and double mouse click on the face that you want the software to select towards of? Any help please?
Can you do a video on how to make a bear trap in 3ds max plz
I took two months to learn Adobe After Effects and Premier Pro. Now I am learning soft soft to make soft so I can have more verity
Dear all new producers - don’t give up on that hope of making good soft
how did you move the gizmo in a fixed direction? every time i move the gizmo to the center of the object it goes along with my mouse pointer. need help. thanks
I found my way of twisting, i just dont select any of the poligons just twisting the model and moving the gizmo of the twist . If the object moves arround, than u can rotate the object in the position u want. But i have a problem my self i cant twist extruded objects from sphere in the way i want. Could u give me an advise about that?
how do u turn on the anti aliasing and ambient occlusion in the scene (not rendering)
How did he change his workspace like that? Its a lot different than the one in the first video andI would like mine to look like this!
16:34 how did u select only the squares...
I don't have the upper and right toolbar with the edit options. How can I add it there?
what wrong from 19:08 to 19:10 , I can't made it :((((
Wow!
19:48 I am struggling so hard with this twist stuff. None of my inset lines are lining up like yours and I have used all of the same dimensions you have throughout the whole video. The only way I can get mine to line up is if I twist it up like a coil. Also you should probably tell us when you click off of things, that has messed up my process so many times and I have had to start over from the beginning. Otherwise, these videos are very helpful but as a beginner trying to follow along, you move very quickly and I find myself getting frustrated.
I got the same problem. If you pay attention to the 19:09 transition, it looks like some extra steps were taken but weren't included in the video.
I don't even plan on using this twist thingy in the future, but not getting the same results as the tutorial, despite following every step, is quite annoying. -.-
same here....
The same :( getting really frustrated...
@@ana-marijamustac9930 you guys need first to press on " Edit Poly" , select the object or set of sections "so they turn to red color" after that press on "twist" the line box will appear and every thing will go normal as the video.
p.s. I had the same problem and I repeated the video 3 times until I got it.
It’s a bit out of date here, but I feel frustrated and have the same problem😅
clips. I use a drum loop and afterwards I want to record a appguitar. What happens.. the drumloop starts to record again along the
Bend modifier is not working properly pls help!!! The object rotate in its place dint made the circle
How do I add edit geometry pannel on the right side?
Hi. I dont have the soft selection. where can I find mine?
22:19 the method with the pressed shift does not work for me, how to turn on the shade?
UPD. The method has changed in 2021.2. You now need to hold CTRL and double-click to do loops.
How to enable or make my tools n screen like the video? I mean, i dont even have the modifier list box or that x,y,z button... Need to be more detail n more tools to see
I'm in 20:00 and i still have lots of lines in the bottom on the twist towers, the geometry seems mess up
Hello, I dont have that toolbar beside your command panel. cant access the extude, bevel etc. How to show it tho?
You can scroll down the command panel to find the tools or left click and drag the outer line of the command panel to expand it.
ellerine sağlık teşekkür ederim
why connect option it doesnt work for me? I have always same issue, help please!
Having an issue: at min/sec 19:30, when I use upper limit the bases of my beveled objects spin with it creating distorted polygons on the base. Anybody else deal with this and solve it? Thx!
The fundamental mistake that we and HIM made is to set the "twist origin"(I don't really know the terminology - had to come up with the solution myself - thus the quotation marks) to the base of the original cube. Here is how to change the location of "twist origin":
0. If you haven't deleted the Twist Modifier yet, do it now.
1. Before adding a new Twist Modifier, in the Edit Poly, select(with a poligon selection) one of these: polygons surrounding the base of the center column(bevel) OR the bottom section(s) of the column(s)(YOUR COLUMNS SHOULD BE DEVIDED INTO MULTIPLE SEGMENTS BY NOW)
2. Without selecting anything else OR diselecting previously selected parts create a new Twist Modifier
3. Now you should see a yellow cross right in the middle of your 3D piece. Now this is what I previously called "twist origin". From here the twist will originate, meaning everything that lays on the same plane as this cross(depending on the axis of twist) will not rotate, thus making it easy for you to correct the overtwist
4. Continue following the video guide from 19:00
21:38 my shift drag isn't working...
could you tell me the problem..??
You can switch between 3ds Max and Maya Interaction mode by going to the Customize > Preferences > Interaction tab and picking the settings you want. You can then close 3ds Max, re-open it, and customize additional hotkeys as necessary.
Please let me know if this works for you! (Found in an Autodesk Thread) This solution worked for me
@@Onlyfaff My shift+drag is working but its not like extruding the edges, everything is coming together when I drag/shift+drag. I tried this setting but it only disabled my shift+drag now it doesn't move at all so I took it back :/
You are an amazing person and thank you. Let's do tNice tutorials!
Hellow guys,, when i try to select in edge mode and convert it to polygon it does not select the same selection like in the video @22:17
18:10 - how to select multiple edges? Stuck on that. TIA.
nice :)
I cant move the verticies in selection mode.
well if only I have a relax button for my life
hey i cant seem to have the box layer under editable poly do you know whay that is?
Press F4
How do i get the box/menu beneath “modifier list” on the right-hand side...it has edit poly, shell, symmetry, edit spline?
grow the menu beneath and it appears
Thanks Elena. I did eventually figure it out. Its frustrating watching many of these tutorials because most people assume you know what youre doing...which doesnt make much sense considering they landed on a tutorial because they DONT know what theyre doing and want to learn. But i guess these are all first-world problems. Anyways, thanks again for taking the time to respond.
@@pawnmusic So, how did u manage to get that box/menu in the end cause i cant figure out Elenas tip :(
@@lunaviturtia485 at the top of the box where it says "Modifier List" ...to the right of that is a little arrow....(*right) click on that little arrow/triangle and a menu will pop out....*click on the first one that says "Configure Modifier Sets"
@@lunaviturtia485 hope that helps...let me know if you figure it out
when i try to copy object not see number of copy
Man i dont have that 'box' around my object when i try to twist those and I cant twist shit.. help?
When i press "G" i dont get a Grid on the Object..
how was the transition form 19:09 to 19:11
i don't seem to have the edit poly (or any of those options) below the modifier dropdown menu. How do I turn this on. Atm I have to either go into the drop down menu to select or right click.
When you create a new object you're suppose to go into the modifier list to select Edit poly to add the modifier to the object. You can also convert the object into an editable poly by right clicking on it and going to convert to: editable poly.

@@MarkSinister A bit late but I want you to know this was a pretty helpful comment. Thanks for pointing this out.
@@sepphoris8463 Yeah because I totally forgot how to use 3DS Max again, lol! Daz Studio make you very dumb when you over use it...
11:30 -- turning back-facking off to stop "selecting through" the object
When I fill in steps of GMS the in channel rack instead of giving a soft like 'brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr' instead of 'br br br br'
electronic. You got any ideas why that happened?
very heplful, can you please tell me how to view the segment in my objects
F4 I think
how did you do 30:14 ? like I can't extrude it? any help
I have the same problemm............. PLEASE HELP SOMEONE
@@YourTele-sFabulous go to line and then do it
year to see if I could give that type of tNice tutorialng a shot again. Long story short...I have depression and anxiety disorder and it hasn't been
what heppend at 24.17...you lost me... i am on the top of the sphere and after one second you are on the side.....
Yeah i tried before byt didnt work
Right so the objects have a box around them with no explanation of how to show said box - an hour later and found out how to do it which would have been helpful if it got a mention here. What you need to do is select "Views" on the menu bar then "Viewport Per-View Settings" -> "Per-View Preferences" -> check "Selection Brackets".
As per the first video, this is way to fast for beginners to follow, takes hours to go through one 30 min video, due to machine-gun information which then requires pausing the video to find out how to create the view and settings you have.
Thank you so much for this I had the same problem and also how is he able to select only those pillars and not the whole object at 17:18 cause it's not working for me and I've been for too long now to select only the pillar thingys
@@RiyaSingh-rm8gp Thanks for the kind words, these videos are great just way to fast and some stuff that I assume he thinks are "just known" are not :). This may be helpful as I think it has to do with what selection mode you have enabled ua-cam.com/video/Y_eHi0Az4CI/v-deo.html.
thanks for the tutorial. this program seems extremely unintuitive for 3D modelling. largely an exercise of box ticking than drawing/modelling. pretty steep learning curve but in the right hands pretty efficient / productive
I use Blender, personally. You might also like to use a sculpting app, such as Blender, ZBrush, Mudbox, 3DCoat or the online SculptGL
@@josephbrandenburg4373 blender is very good and easy to use. i'm trying to learn 3ds max and i dont like it at all, but the only way i'm learning this is to sell my 3d models into 3ds formats
@@ladyvanessa972 Blender can export to .3ds and .fbx, but it can't do .max and it's limited with .fbx. You should be able to sell models as .fbx just fine, but of course you'll want to test them.
@@josephbrandenburg4373
but I also read that when we make our materials on blender, that even saving in 3ds, people cant recover our materials made in blender in 3dsmax
@@ladyvanessa972 No, materials can't be exported that way- each rendering engine has its own way of doing materials. If you're using Max I'm assuming your target is Arnold.
Most rendering engines do, however, use the same basic textures to control their shaders. So a normal map, albedo map, roughness map, and metalness map (PBR texturing) is sufficient to describe most materials in almost any modern rendering engine.
Which graphic card do you have?
If I hit shift it doesnt create more geometry with the selected edge, but takes the surroundings with it...... i have 2020
And if i select polygon and hit delete it doesnt create a whole like yours, I don't know what magic you are doing, but I have to still extrude it to create a whole....?!
I also don't have a border/boarder?
Thanks for helping out, not [fuck u emoji]
burnt. But it was very helpful for soone who's doing tNice tutorials for the very first ti in my life.
0:00 Hello everyone this is YOUR Daily Dose of Internet
16:56 I dont have that box..
Box or modifier?
I dont have it either, did you manage to find out how to get it?
@@devonwalker8640 watch: ua-cam.com/video/RkVRoOlVnQ8/v-deo.html
Create the favorite box for modifiers
@@Ranzoape sorry but that did not help. I have some lines going in between the faces ive selected but whe ni apply the twist modifier these orange lines does not encapsule the whole object, only the faces i've selected.

this is not that good... you're skipping over important parts like selecting polygons or deselecting the polygons which makes this video thrice as long cause i need to play back all the time which means tabbing from one screen to the other constantly.
save... ( how can image-line call their software a professional DAW... when the programming belongs to kindergarden... ) Last ti I ever
I don’t, tNice tutorials guy needs to learn to chase a bag
hey soft soft pls mind your own business
most helpful tutorial on youtube, thank you alot
Good work, I mean yanks are known for crappy software I mean take a look at windows 10 and 11 and then of course EVERYTHING else you yanks produced so yeah good thing you yourself show us the way a little bit how this crappy software works, good work ! By the way can you tell your fellow yanks to create descent software for a change ? It is of COURSE not a coincidence that products like the F35 is a flop ! Well there ya go ! ! Anyways .... thanks for the effort always nice when fellow designers are helping each other out
