Title: Gmax Help.
Post by: Jake_Savage on January 29, 2014, 09:19:23

Hi. Guys.

I have just downloaded GMAX and wondered if anyone had any tips. I've been sung sketchup for a while and obviously it's going to be different and I've heard quite tricky. So any advice or a tutorial how to build a hull etc would be very much appreciated.

It's mostly trial and error.  ;) Just fiddle around with each function to see what it does. I believe Gmax includes most basic functions, so it should be possible to search for beginner tutorials for different software as well since these often use the same terminology.
Most importantly: patience and dedication. It took me a few years before I finally understood Cinema 4D's capabilities and started to create decent objects that valued C4D's purpose.

Thanks for your post. It seems simple but I can stake my dignity it won't be :)
