$150 for the lot, I walked away paying $40.
Teachers discount ftw.
Anyway, good selection?
The 3ds bible is like 1300 pages, comes with a dvd.

I also suggest Windows Programming 5th Edition by Petzold for win32 api in C

and get a directx book to learn how to apply the AutoDesk 3ds Max 9 modeling

Good grab btw

Not interested in C and the 3ds bible has a whole volume about direct x.
I scored.

I prefer AutoDesk Maya over 3DS Max though.

Cryoma · Posted: Fri Oct 24, 2008 3:36 pm Post subject:

Both are by autodesk, isn't Maya more for macs anyway?

Maya is more known for its procedural shaders. It used to be an entirely different company's product competing 3D modeling software.

Hmm well the best shaders I find are 3rd party anyway.
Besides, 3ds Max has like the best universal model support.
I can import my models into flash CS4.

When i said C i meant C++, i just say C. and you have a C++ book there.

Besides, the 3ds book won't teach you nearly as much about directx and how to USE directx as a book dedicated to it would.

Ok, then when I learn directx I'll get a book on that.

I find maya to not work like I wanted. I'd perfer 3ds max as it has really simple controls.
