CC Viz/3D Spring 2010 Class-02

The class-02 tutorial will explore the 3ds Max snaps interface which is similar to AutoCad although far more advanced. In 3ds Max you can snap to 2D objects only, snap to 3D and project as 2D or snap to all. We also look at the UCS (user co-ordinate system) in AutoCad an essential part of learning 3D design in any modeling application. We continue with our AutoCad / 3ds Max modeling strategy and we look specifically at when to model from plan vs elevation or section. Then finally we look at the Daylight system that is made up of three components: Compass, MR Sun and MR Sky. MR stands for Mental Ray.
