What does all of the above mean for you? It means you can import skills, effects, login and tomb files

Blender is free, 3ds Max is not. Blender is open source, 3ds Max is not. Blender is cross-platform, 3ds Max is not. Blender is good software, so is 3ds Max. Hence blender, as everyone can download and use it, which cannot be said for 3ds Max.

What can be done in 3D Studio Max can be done with Blender and more. I'm a biased fanboy what can I say... If you donate a unpirated version of 3D Studio Max I will gladly take a stab at it with no guarantees. Or if you're like me and can't afford such donations, I give you full permission to start a fund raiser to raise the funds to purchase the software, again with no guarantees.
