Introduction into 3ds max Part 2 (german language)

Intro: summary of video: Introduction part 1 “transform”

Hide selection, “Unhide objects” menue, “Select from scene” menue

Copy objects: copy, instance, reference

Organize objects in layer manager, hide, unhide and freeze objects

Working with spline lines: basics, extrude, Corner and bezier type, open and closed splines

Edit “Line” or “Editable spline”: Interpolation “adaptive”, Vertex/Segment and Spline level

Edit and transform vertex type: corner, bezier, smooth

Enable in Viewport/Renderer and “Extrude modifier” to create 3D object from spline line

Modifier Stack: show endresult toggle

Create and extrude other 2D shapes: circle, text

Design precisely 2D splines with snap toggle and “axis constrains”

3D objects: change parameters of primitives, add modifier “edit poly” to do more

Scale objects always under “Element” in “edit poly”

“Convert to Editable poly” or “Edit poly”, stack modifier to be more flexible

Move vertex points and edges and avoid triangulation

Further functions with copy/ instance/ reference example: “inset” and “extrude” polygons, copy modifier

Design example for DE1: subtraction with “pro boolean”
