"With game modeling artists like
Paul Steed (modeler of Quake), Wordware again takes the
reins and leads the way in game design & graphic development."
Great book, April 5, 2002 Reviewer: Alec Moody. I
received this book 2 days ago and I can't stop reading. The
book is straightforward and clearly written. I found the first
chapter to be extremely helpful. Being a former long-time truespace
user, much of it came easily. The extra tips placed in the chapters
are a lifesaver... I've read other Max books like A
Visual Quick Start Guide to 3dstudio max, but found the
books unclear and poorly structured. This book actually teaches
techniques.
