 3D Studio Max - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It was developed as a successor to 3D Studio for DOS, but for the Win32 platform.
In addition to its modeling and animation tools, the latest version of 3ds Max also features advanced shaders (such as ambient occlusion and subsurface scattering), dynamical simulation, particle systems, radiosity, normal map creation and rendering, global illumination, an intuitive and fully-customizable user interface, its own scripting language and much more.
This technique is most often used for game design, as the very specific control over individual polygons allows for extreme optimization.

 Don's 3D Studio MAX R2 Page
MAX supports this optimization at two levels, depending on the underlying hardware and driver implementations.
In order to optimize MAX’s uses of all rasterization cards, we apply all the optimizations mentioned in the last paragraph of the 2D Display Cards section, and we also convert all possible data into triangle strips, which minimizes the communication and computational overhead of getting data to and through the rasterization processor.
Note that if MAX computes all of the scene lighting, clipping, rasterization, etc, then only 500x400x3=600,000 bytes must be transferred across the system bus to produce a truecolor image on a dumb display card.

 3D Studio Max Books : Creating 3D Objects and Models in 3D Studio Max Books for beginners and advanced users
The complex interface and powerful technology underlying 3D animation and modeling software can be intimidating to newcomers, but the 3ds max 6 for Windows: Visual QuickStart Guide breaks the process down into manageable tasks to remove the fear factor.
he 3D Studio Max application is big and has great depth, but most of the available books that cover it are either of the all-encompassing "bible" type--which are great reference books, but often lack in-depth tutorials--or the getting-started type--which are designed to orient the new user without inducing a bad case of "featuritis overwhelmus."
Since animation can be so much more than moving objects around on keyframes, animation controllers, a new MAX feature, are unraveled here.
