I Need...

I would suggest using bittorrent to download a program as large as 3dsmax, since there is a high likelyhood of ending up with a corrupt download with Kazaa.

The file you want is 2.09 GB and includes 3D Studio Max 5.0, the 5.1 update, a keygen, 700MB of documentation and tutorials, lots of samples, many liks to sources of information, a book on 3dsmax for beginners, and the following plugins:

• Reactor (for dynamics, cloth, and rope calculations)
• Character Studio for character rigging and animation
• Brazil (one of the best medium end renderers currently on the market)
• Some other stuff thats useful for newbies

Just get a new harddisk, and add it to the computer. Even a 100GB is pretty cheap these days.

You are desperately searching for an easy 3d tool?

Try Bryce5 and Poser4 (for people) :)

With Bryce5 and Poser4 you can easily share your thoughts and dreams :)

I have Win98 and not very very fast pc :) but it works quite well...
I also tried 3d studio 2.0 or 2.5, but there is a thick manual :)

here are some good sites: http://fly.to/mirre (Bryce4/5 with Poser4)
http://ww.surrealplaces.com (partly 3d studio, partly Bryce4/5)
http://www.renderosity.com (artist community)
http://internet-news.gmxhome.de (my own work, there is a link!)

thanks anyway, david.

~you can get bryce and poser on kazaa or in the shop (amazon.com .de, only 99Euros)

I would like to add that Poser, Bryce, and other ready-made-3D tools are not modeling tools. yes they are 3D, but the models have already been created, and cannot be modified. They can't be used to create anything but the most trivial images/movies with only rudimentary animation.

Please do not take these programs seriously, as they will considerably hinder your ability to learn how to use real 3d programs.

They are toy program, great for simple scenes, but impossible for anything non trivial, which you will eventually realize.

simple scenes: yeah you maybe right - if you are looking for a 3d tool
to calculate exactly scenes the best to choose would be 3d studio,
but for 3d studio you have to read big manual, befoe starting...

I would not say bryce is just for simple scenes, cause you also can
make different object with boolean, ok it is not as professional like 3ds, but
it is worth looking, some scenes really look professional.

And If you really want professional scenes, you probably may use more programs:
means: making the models in 3ds, import them to another program and so on...

thks...
