TheDamagedOne Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) So I'm pretty new to modeling. I've done a bit in the past however it has been a few years since I've touched 3Ds Max so I've forgotten my limited knowledge. Anywho, I've been tinkering with gmax (Since it's free) and have noticed that it's just a dumbed down version of 3Ds Max so I've been looking for tutorials using that as well as Gmax. Now I realize that Gmax might not have all the capabilities of the full blown 3Ds Max but I thought I'd ask anyway. Basically I viewed this on how to make stadium bleachers. Looked fairly simple when I watched it all the way through the first time however when trying to duplicate the results in gmax, I am stuck almost immediately. I don't know how the user is extending the edges to create new planes. Anyone know how this done? Help would be much appreciated! Thanks Edited March 11, 2012 by TheDamagedOne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clivewil Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 without watching your video, i'll say that in max you can usually extrude any selected edges into polys by holding down Shift before you drag the edges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDamagedOne Posted March 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Yea, I actually "acquired" a version of 3Ds Max and found this out. But apparently you can't do this in Gmax for some reason. Oh well. Looks like I'll either find a different way to achieve that or just work in 3Ds Max... Probably just gonna work in Max.
