Today I went on the net ready to purchase 3DStudio Max 6. And the value for it is $3000.00 How in the world can anyone afford that (Or even pay that much) for a software and it does so well around. Here in Canada will cost about $5000.00 to $6000.00 I know 3DS can do wonders. But come on, that it just rediculis. Sometimes I wonder why the copyright thing just fails. Maybe someone can help me. I am looking for a software program that can make; obj, 3DS files, and/or other, so I can group them, boning, so then when I import into poser, I wouldn't have to do all that. It will be done already. I was also looking at Cinima 4D W8 for animations. Need advice. All I am seeing is Poser5 mostly making images. When it is a character creator animation program. But, need to make characters (Cars, vehicles, other objects, characters) from another program, then import, then group, then bone in the setup room.
