[EDIT]

Updated on 15 June 2006.

Added more icons to help people find their way around 3DS Max much more easily. I hope I didn't make it too messy!

Remember that this guide is written in color-coded sections, so take your time to accomplish each section.

Hmm, it looks great! Although I have no idea how to work with those programs, I've downloaded a trial to try this tutorial.
As thatcher suggested, a tutorial for the needed programs would be very helpful.

WiZE183 [2007-01-20 11:59:14 +0000 UTC]

hey tis is one good tut but i cant figure out how can i make the light marks on the plane coming from the glowy parts of the orb and saw some dude do light ray effect on the orbs (the light rays coming from the glow) could u pleaze educate me on that thx

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Balthaser In reply to WiZE183 [2007-01-21 08:51:15 +0000 UTC]

The light coming out of the orb is emitted by a light source. We use one omni light for each orb.

Only the "shell" of the orb is made 2-sided. Maybe you made the skin of the whole orb 2-sided?
