Maya and 3ds Max are the two big dogs of the field, and pretty serious pro level programs. After that, Lightwave, Cinema 4D, Bryce, there's Terragen, which is an environment maker, Sketchup is an architectural only program, Autocad, which is used mainly for vehicular and architectural, there's Pov Ray which is free, an open source thing I think? And another open source thing called Blender. Milkshape is pretty priomitive and used mainly for making stuff for online gaming. Not a bad program, just very specific. I have a pretty good grasp on a lot of this stuff, I'm going to school for it now and plan on doing it professionally.
cheers reality23 every version of maya or 3d max i downloaded off kazaa is corrupt.
that prov ray did the the trick thank you very much. ;)
I have tried Maya, 3ds Max and Pov Ray. Those programs are great! Mainly Maya.
HOWEVER, those professional programs take a long time to use and learn. Gets very time consuming, and frustrating when you just want to make something quick. So if you want realistic 3D effects in a quick amount of time, I recommend Simply 3D. Yeah, it will take a few attempts to learn it, but once you do, you can create spectactulaer images in minutes. It also uses Autocad images (*.dxf) files/models. You can download many DXF files for free from the internet.
That Funky Capricorn image took about 1/2 hour to create.
Wizzandabe's logo took me 5 minutes to create.
I would lik to say i love that pic bt FC. That is good.
i think that Simply 3D got a name simple i like to learn time consuming stuff like 3ds, i have just completed the 2nd disk of maya 4.5 and am going to get to work i still recon that 3ds max is better.
